Abstract: An interface and a sample analysis method using the same are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an interface is between a liquid chromatography (LC), an ionization device, and a mass spectrometer (MS), wherein a sample containing a target eluted from the liquid chromatography is ionized by the ionization device and the sample is introduced into the mass spectrometer, wherein the interface includes a droplet sprayer, an evaporator having a heatable block, and an introduction tube, wherein the heatable block has one or more openings, the droplet sprayer for coverting the sample into sample droplets and for spraying the sample droplets, the evaporator for evaporating a solvent in the sample droplets to generate a gaseous target by passing the droplets through the one or more openings, the introduction tube for receiving the gaseous target and for introducing an ionized gaseous target into the mass spectrometer.

Abstract: An on-line system that performs concentration and solvent exchange in order to improve a detection level of analytes by a liquid chromatograph (LC) is provided. The on-line system comprises: a first pump and a second pump for supplying a solvent; a liquid chromatograph (LC) including a separation column (SC) connected to the first pump; a trapping column (TC) for collecting the analytes separated from the separation column; a concentration column (CC) for concentrating the analytes collected in the trapping column (TC); a detector; and first to third switching valves that communicate fluid with at least one of the first or second pumps. An analysis method using the same is also provided.
