    Abstract: An optical detection arrangement for small volume chemical analysis comprises a light source (22), a capillary tube (23) and a photoelectric detector (24). The arrangement of the light source (22) relative to the capillary tube (23) is such, that probing light (P) emitted from the light source (22) strikes a sample (S) to be analyzed, which is flowing through the capillary tube (23), whereas the photoelectric detector (24) is arranged relative to the capillary tube (23) such, that it is capable of detecting light comming from the capillary tube. The photoelectric detector (24) is connected with an evaluation electronics. Between the light source (22) and the capillary tube (23)the probing light (P) is guided essentially in a guiding means (26) which is made of a material having a refractive index gradient about perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the probing light (P), and which is connected to the capillary tube (23) such that probing light (P) exiting the guiding material (26) strikes the capillary tube (23). Preferably light emitting diodes (LEDs) or laser diodes are used as light source (22).

    Abstract: An analytic separation arrangement includes a system of tubes including a separation zone, preferably a separation column, which tubes upstream the separation zone are connected with reservoirs for a carrier and a chemical sample to be seperated and analyzed, and downstream the separation zone are connected with a waste container for the carrier containing the sample and also are connected with transporting means for the carrier and the sample. The tube system is associated with an optical detector for monitoring changes in the absorption, in the fluorescence or in the optical activity of the carrier when it is transported through the tube system and past the optical detector, which is arranged in the path of the carrier behind the separation zone but in front of the waste container. Between the separation zone and the optical detector there is arranged in the path of the carrier a refractive index equalizing unit. Prior to being transported past the optical detector the carrier, which is comming from the separation zone, is directed through the refractive index equalizing unit, where its refractive index is preferably constantly monitored and where upon detection of changes of the refractive index of the carrier the deviation is compensated by adding to the carrier a compensating agent.

    Abstract: A flow cell for calorimetric measurements comprises a body (2) with at least one flow channel (3), which extends between an inlet opening (4) and an outlet opening (5), and a thermoelectric detector (16) for monitoring temperature changes, which occur during chemical or biochemical processes in a measuring volume (17). The measuring volume (17) is arranged in close vicinity of the outlet opening (5). The body (2) of the flow cell (1) has a good thermal conductivity of a magnitude such, that a fluid flowing through the flow channel (3) is thermostatizised prior to entering the measuring volume (17) solely by flowing through the flow channel (3) and free of any external thermostatization means. Thus, a flow cell is provided, which is capable of self-thermostatizing a fluid flowing therethrough.

    Abstract: An interferometric apparatus for monitoring changes of the refractive index of An interferometri1capillary tubes comprising a source of coherent light, which is arranged with respect to a capillary tube which is part of a capillary liquid chromatographic system or a capillary electrophoretic system, such that the coherent light beam strikes the capillary tube about perpendicular to its longitudinal extension. In the forward direction of the coherent light beam, behind the capillary tube, the apparatus comprises a photoelectric detector for monitoring a resulting interference fringe pattern and the shifts thereof, which is connected to an evaluation electronics. Between the light source and the capillary tube there is arranged a beam splitting optical element for generating a converging probe beam, which travels along a probe beam axis and strikes the capillary tube at its bore, and a converging reference beam, which travels along a reference beam axis, that extends generally parallel to the probe beam axis and is located in close vicinity to the probe beam axis, and which does not strike the capillary bore.

    Abstract: A detection cell (4) is part of an interferometer for measuring changes in the refractive index of a medium located in a capillary (2). In order to simplify the evaluation of an interference fringe pattern, the capillary (2) is arranged in a matching fluid (15), the refractive index of which corresponds to that of the material of the capillary. The matching fluid (15) acts at the same time as a temperature-control bath for the capillary, thereby substantially increasing the temperature stability.
