摘要:
A pressure gauge mounted to a pump or a back pressure regulator in an HPLC, SFC, or SFE system provides improved solvent exchange and improved measurement precision. A through hole having an inside diameter of 1.0 mm is made in a hexagonal member similar in shape to a pipe joint. A part of the hexagonal member is cut away to form a flat surface such that the distance to the outside periphery of the through hole is 0.5 mm to serve as a strain-measurement strain gauge attaching surface. One strain gauge is attached to the center of the strain-measurement strain gauge attaching surface, and two strain gauges are attached for temperature correction, one on the same surface as the strain-measurement strain gauge attaching surface and the other on an outside surface of the hexagonal member.

There is provided a sample collection container, a sample collection apparatus, and a sample collection method used in a supercritical fluid system capable of collecting a multi-constituent sample contained in a supercritical fluid at low cost and high collection efficiency. The pressure of a supercritical fluid containing a sample is reduced to a pressure close to the atmospheric pressure, and the depressurized supercritical fluid is forced to undergo adiabatic expansion to form gas-phase CO 2 containing a liquid component in the form of aerosol. The gas-phase CO 2 is fractionated for each constituent of the contained sample, transferred to a probe 60 of Liquid Handler, and dispensed into a large number of collection vials 300 under the atmospheric pressure, each of which is provided with a vial cap 100. The aerosol-containing gas-phase CO 2 is sprayed through the tip of an introduction tube 210 provided in each of the vial cap 100 in a direction downwardly-inclined from the tangential direction along an inner circumferential surface 308 of the corresponding collection vial 300, and swirls and falls in the collection vial 300. In this process, the liquid component containing the sample collides with the inner circumferential surface 308 and is trapped thereon, whereas the gas-phase CO 2 is discharged out of a discharge hole 109 in the vial cap 100.

A light detection apparatus for liquid chromatographs includes a main body having a flow cell mounting space for receiving either a removable first flow cell (15) adapted to hold a fluorescent light emitting sample or a removable second flow cell (16) adapted to hold a chemiluminescent light emitting sample, an excitation light source (11) provided in the main body to emit excitation light toward the flow cell mounting space, a monochromater (18) for dispersing fluorescent light from the first flow cell into monochromatic light when the first flow cell is mounted within the flow cell mounting space, a first light detector (19) for receiving the dispersed fluorescent light from the monochromater, a second light detector (25) for receiving chemiluminescent light from the second flow cell when the second flow cell is mounted within the flow cell mounting space, a signal processing device (22) which receives detection signals from either the first or second light detectors and carries out a prescribed signal process on such detection signals in order to output either fluorescent light output signals or chemiluminescent light output signals, and a shutter (27) which prevents light from reaching the second light detector when the first light detector is detecting fluorescent light.

摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a pressure control apparatus for a supercritical fluid in which variation in pressure is small even in measurement in which analysis conditions are changed with time to improve separation and other performance. That is, a pressure control apparatus for a supercritical fluid according to the present invention includes: a valve comprising; a valve chamber provided in a midway of a channel through which a supercritical fluid passes; and an electrically-operated valve element located in the valve chamber; wherein a front end of the valve element fits into the valve chamber when the valve is closed, and it travels backward when the valve is opened; a pressure detection member for detecting the pressure of the supercritical fluid in the channel on an upstream or downstream side of the valve chamber; an open/close control member for controlling the pressure detected by the pressure detection member to be a target pressure; and a valve-opening rate adjustment member for adjusting the valve-opening rate when the valve is opened based on the state of the supercritical fluid.
