  • DESORBER AND TRAP FOR TRACE DETECTION SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20180283993
    Abstract: A trap for an analysis device. The trap includes a body configured to be at least partially inserted into an inlet of a desorber assembly of the analysis device. The desorber is configured to selectively operate in a plurality of analysis modes. The body includes a first surface and a feature. The first surface is configured to receive, on a first region thereof, a sample of a substance of interest for analysis by the analysis device. The feature is located in a second region of the first surface and detectable by the desorber upon insertion into the inlet thereof. The feature is associated with one of the plurality of analysis modes.
