Abstract: A sampling unit is fluidically coupled to a source. The sampling unit is configured for receiving a fluidic sample from the source and chromatographically separating the received fluidic sample. The sampling unit is operated to introduce a test sample into the source. At least a portion of the introduced test sample from the source is received into the sampling unit, and the received portion of the test sample is chromatographically separated in the sampling unit.

Abstract: A sample management device which comprises a source flow path in which a fluidic sample can flow, a volume flow adjustment unit configured for adjusting a volume flow of the fluidic sample to be branched off from the source flow path at a fluidic coupling point, and a fluidic valve fluidically coupled with the source flow path and with the volume flow adjustment unit, wherein the fluidic valve is switchable into a branch off state in which the fluidic coupling point is established within the source flow path to branch off an adjustable volume of the fluidic sample from the source flow path via the fluidic coupling point while a flow of the fluidic sample in the source flow path continues.
