Abstract: A method for injecting a diluted sample in a chromatography system includes merging a flow of a sample and a flow of a diluent to form a flow of a diluted sample. A dilution ratio of the diluted sample equals a sum of the volumetric flow rates of the sample and the diluent divided by the volumetric flow rate of the sample. The diluted sample is stored in a holding element before injection into a chromatographic system flow. Sample dilution occurs under low pressure relative to the chromatographic flow thereby allowing lower pressure sample and diluent syringes to be used. Other benefits include reduced compressibility and a reduction in leaks due to the lower pressure operation. The method avoids problems associated with manual techniques which can introduce errors due, for example, to loss of sample, sample precipitation and adsorption of sample to vials.

Abstract: Described are a method and apparatus for diluting a chromatographic sample. The method includes repeating an alternating acquisition of sample fluidic plugs each having an incremental volume of sample and diluent fluidic plugs each having an incremental volume of diluent to obtain a stack of alternating sample and diluent fluidic plugs. The stack is inserted into a flow of a mobile phase in a chromatography system. Alternatively, the method includes repeating the steps of injecting an incremental volume of sample into a chromatographic system flow and providing an incremental volume of mobile phase into the chromatographic system flow. In either implementation, the dilution ratio of the sample equals the sum of the incremental volumes of the sample and the diluent or mobile phase divided by the sum of the incremental volumes of the sample.

Abstract: Described is a chromatographic column assembly that includes an outer tube comprising a metal, a first conduit disposed within the outer tube, a second conduit disposed within the outer tube, and a first joint located between the first conduit and the second conduit. The outer tube is deformed by a first uniform radial crimp at a longitudinal location along the outer tube that surrounds the first conduit on a first side of the first joint, and a second uniform radial cramp at a longitudinal location along the outer tube that surrounds the second conduit on a second side of the first joint. The first and second uniform radial cramps form a fluid-tight seal between the first conduit and the second conduit and each have a substantially flat base region over which a diameter of the outer tube is reduced for a non-zero longitudinal length.

Abstract: Described is a fluidic manifold that includes a block formed of multiple layers each bonded to at least one adjacent layer at a layer interface. Bonding may be achieved using a diffusion bonding process. The block includes one or more attachment surfaces and at least two fluidic channels. Each fluidic channel is at least partially disposed at one of the layer interfaces and has a first end at one of the attachment surfaces. Each attachment surface includes an attachment feature at the first end of one of the fluidic channels to enable a fluidic coupling of the two fluidic channels through a fluidic component. Attachment features include, for example, a compression fitting coupling body adapted to receive a conventional seal, such as a ferrule and compression screw, and a fitting body that permits a face seal or gasket seal between the fluidic component and the block.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are directed to a method for diffusing fluid flow within a modular extraction vessel. A modular extraction vessel can be assembled using a plurality of extraction vessel chambers, and each extraction vessel chamber is associated with at least one diffuser element. An extracting solvent is introduced into the modular extraction vessel, and the extracting solvent flows through the extraction vessel chambers. By flowing through the extraction vessel chambers and diffusers, the flow path of the extracting solvent is diffused along an extraction path.

Abstract: A pressure control device for use with a compressible fluid extraction system is provided, which includes a body portion integrated with a first vessel, and a pressure control element configured to control a first pressure of a second vessel upstream of the first vessel, wherein a decompression event occurs at a point of decompression proximate an outlet of the pressure control element of the pressure control device, wherein an analyte soluble in an extraction solvent stream at the first pressure but has reduced solubility in the extraction solvent stream at the pressure resulting from the decompression event drops out of solution and into the first vessel at the point of decompression Furthermore, an associated extraction system and method is also provided.
