Abstract: A liquid chromatograph includes: an analysis column; a sample loop that temporarily contains a mixed liquid of a sample and a mixture solvent; and a passage switch valve capable of switching a passage between a load position where the mixed liquid is temporarily held in the sample loop and an injection position where the mixed liquid held in the sample loop is sent to the analysis column. In the liquid chromatograph, a specific passage is formed in each of the load position and the injection position.

Abstract: A pre-analysis treatment device usable for an amino acid, organic acid, and glucide includes an ion-exchange unit configured to load a test sample on a solid-phase cartridge S having a strong ion-exchange resin phase, to allow the strong ion-exchange resin phase to adsorb a predetermined organic compound, then supply a dehydration solvent to dehydrate the strong ion-exchange resin phase, and a derivatization unit configured to feed a predetermined amount of the derivatization reagent to the dehydrated strong ion-exchange resin phase to allow the derivatization reagent to retain for a predetermined time period, thereby trimethylsilylating the organic compound adsorbed on the strong ion-exchange resin phase, and simultaneously desorbing the trimethylsilylated organic compound from the strong ion-exchange resin phase, and then supply a push-out solvent to push the trimethylsilylated organic compound desorbed, out of the solid-phase cartridge S.

Abstract: A dry ice freeze-pulverizer includes pulverizing container and pulverizer main body. The pulverizing container includes a container main body that includes a bottom plate and a side plate erected from a peripheral edge of the bottom plate, has an upper surface opening, and is provided with a pulverizing blade therein, and a lid that closes the upper surface opening and has a vent hole. The pulverizer main body includes a drive device configured to rotate the pulverizing blade. The side plate of the container main body is formed with a vacuum double structure that is obtained by evacuating an internal space formed by opposing metal plates.

Abstract: Provided is a solid phase extraction cartridge including a front end portion for discharging in a cartridge main body, which is capable of connecting a pipe without using a connection adapter and is preferable for an extremely small amount filling type with high analysis accuracy. A solid phase extraction cartridge 1 is configured by, in a cylindrical cartridge main body 2, attaching a sample outflow-side frit 3, filling a portion above the sample outflow-side frit 3 with a solid phase filler 4, and causing a sample inflow-side frit 5 to abut against and be pressed on the solid phase filler 4 to be capped, and is provided with a cylindrical front end portion for discharging 6 under the sample outflow-side frit 3 in the cartridge main body 2.

Abstract: A combination of a liquid chromatograph and a gas chromatograph was a possible measure for improving precision in analyzing organic chemical substances. However, because elutes from liquid chromatoghaphies contain water and a highly polar solvent, injection thereof into a gas chromatograph has been impossible. Consequently, to develop an analytical method which realizes that combination and an apparatus thereof has been a subject. The method of the quantitative analysis comprises subjecting a sample for analysis prepared beforehand by extracting organic chemical substances from an assay sample to fractionation by a liquid chromatograph, continuously adsorbing a fractionated elute containing a substance to be determined onto a solid-phase cartridge while conducting the fractionation, eluting this substance, which has been adsorbed on the solid-phase cartridge, with an eluent, and transferring the elute to a storage chamber of a gas chromatograph.

Abstract: This invention relates to an analytical method and an apparatus utilizing a SPE cartridge, which can realize enhanced accuracy and workability in the analysis of trace substances, such as residual pesticides, can clean the inside of piping, needle valves etc, can eliminate the influence on the analysis and can conduct these operations automatically. In the analytical method and apparatus utilizing a SPE cartridge, analytes previously adsorbed to a SPE cartridge is eluted with a solvent from a liquid feed pump. The eluate was injected into a storage chamber in a gas chromatograph through a needle inserted into an injection port in the storage chamber. The needle is pulled up from the injection port, and the inside of the needle is washed with a solvent fed from the liquid feed pump. The wash liquid is discarded, and the analysis of organic compounds as analytes in an subject sample is carried out.
