Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for preparing samples for gas chromatography, the sample material being guided through a liquid chromatograph (1) by a solvent and being monitored by a detector (2), and, on the basis of the detector (2) recognizing a chromatographic region of interest, the sample material of this region being removed from the stream of sample material leaving the liquid chromatograph (1) and being analyzed by gas chromatography. In this case, the stream of sample material leaving the liquid chromatograph (1) is guided through a flow-through cuvette (4), and the removal is carried out, until the end of the chromatographic region of interest, via a syringe (18) which, when the sample material of the region of interest reaches the flow-through cuvette (4), is introduced into the stream of sample material guided through the flow-through cuvette (4) and is drawn upwards at a predetermined ratio to the transport rate of the stream of sample material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sample application device for a gas chromatograph, having an evaporator (1) which can be cooled, can be heated in a temperature-controlled manner, is provided with a carrier-gas feed and has a valve head (11) for holding an exchangeable sampling tube (27), a receiving chamber (4) for the sampling tube (27), a column exit (18) and, if appropriate, a splitter exit (31). In this device, a pyrolyser tube (20), which is coupled to the carrier-gas feed and is held by the valve head (11), is arranged in the receiving chamber (4), in which there is a heating coil (26) into which the sampling tube (27) can be fitted and to which current can be applied by means of a heating conductor (25) which is guided outwards through the valve head (11).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for applying samples to be analyzed by gas chromatography using a sampling tube, which has a section which contains the adsorbing agent and narrows essentially conically towards a bore which is free of adsorbing agent and has a reduced diameter, in such a manner that the flow rate of a gas which is guided through towards the narrowed section on the outlet side is at least approximately equal to the inlet-side flow rate, liquid or gaseous starting sample material being guided through the sampling tube towards the narrowed section, so that substances to be analyzed are adsorbed on the adsorbing agent, the sampling tube being flushed with drying gas, which is guided through the sampling tube in the same direction as the starting sample material, until the liquid phase, which is contained in the sampling tube, or the starting sample material is essentially removed, and the adsorbed sample being desorbed by means of a carrier gas which is introduced through the sampling tube from
