A display method and a display apparatus capable of discriminating
correctly between a true peak and noise peaks in a waveform data of a
fluorescence analysis result that is obtained from an electrophoresis
experiment of PCR amplification products of a DNA fragment and also
capable of displaying them are provided. Whether or not a complex peak
waveform is generated is judged based on sequence information on a DNA
marker. When a complex peak waveform is generated, a peak judging
algorithm dedicated to complex peak waveform is applied. This peak
judging algorithm is characterized in that peak misjudgment can be
avoided by making the distance between a first fitting position of a
basic waveform and a second fitting position of the basic waveform longer
than a unit length at the time of fitting the basic waveform.
