    摘要: The present disclosure provides adaptive methods for gas chromatography analysis of a gas sample comprising one or more target analytes (such as a micro-gas chromatography) and adaptive gas chromatography devices for carrying out such analytical methods. Broadly, the system can regulate flow into a downstream chromatographic column by detecting one or more upstream conditions. For example, one adaptive chromatography device comprises a first column, a modulator component, and a second column. A first detector or sensor detects the presence of target analytes upstream from the second column, while a second detector detects the presence of target analytes eluted from the second column. The modulator component assembly is responsive to an output generated by the first detector and adaptively regulates fluid flow into the second column. Such adaptive chromatography (micro-GC) systems have higher separation speed, better analyte identification capability, and far greater energy savings.

    摘要: A multi-dimensional liquid analysis system includes a flow splitter for separating mobile phase outflow from a first dimension liquid analysis system into fist and second liquid split outlet flows. Volumetric flow rate control of the split outlet flows is provided by a flow control pump which withdraws one of the split outlet flows from the flow splitter at a controlled withdrawal flow rate to define the other split outlet flow rate as the difference between the outflow rate from the first dimension system and the withdrawal flow rate. In this manner, accurate and consistent flow division can be accomplished, which is particularly useful for multi-dimensional liquid analysis.

    摘要: In a GC×GC data processor (23), a modulation time estimation unit (24) creates a one-dimensional chromatogram from chromatogram data items collected by a comprehensive two-dimensional GC, and retrieves a shift time on which a peak position after an entire curve of the chromatogram being shifted in a temporal axis direction coincides with a peak position of the peak on the original chromatogram. Since the resolution of a primary column (12) is low, the same compound is introduced into a secondary column (14) in consecutive modulation times. Accordingly, on the one-dimensional chromatogram, peaks originating from the same compound appear in the respective consecutive modulation times. The interval between the peaks substantially coincides with the modulation time. Therefore, the shift time retrieved as described above is regarded as the modulation time. Thus, the modulation time is automatically estimated from the chromatogram data items, thereby negating the need of user input or capture from an analysis control unit (3).
