A preparative purification apparatus capable of adjusting a mixing ratio of a mobile phase and an elution solvent contained in a solution to be collected. A liquid feeding unit which feeds an elution solvent to an inlet of a trap column; a flow path switching unit which selectively connects an outlet of the trap column to one of a waste liquid flow path or a recovery flow path; a liquid feed amount measurement unit; and a flow path control unit which performs a control such that the flow path switching unit is connected to the recovery flow path when the amount of the elution solvent fed to the trap column reaches a predetermined initial waste liquid amount, and thereafter, the flow path switching unit is connected to the waste liquid flow path at a timing of reaching a predetermined solution recovery amount.

A multidimensional chromatographic assembly includes a pump module, an injector, a path selector device, an array of chromatographic media, a loop selector device and a detector assembly for receiving at least a portion of an analyte stream and flowing the injected stream into the detector assembly via a chromatographic medium (the first dimension). At least a portion of the analyte of interest is then channeled into a chromatographic medium of interest (the second dimension) and re-circulated through the detector assembly. The iteration (multidimension) is continued until all aspects of the chromatogram and the peaks are judged to be analyzed. The entire process is controlled from a computer and the results are collected to make decisions on the analytical and the process controls.

An adsorption pump includes a housing, a movable part, and an adsorption part. The housing has inlet and outlet ports for a sample. The movable part is at least partly located inside the housing. The adsorption part is located inside the housing.

A re-sampling device for two-dimensional gas chromatography includes a modulator and at least one of a first splitter disposed upstream from the modulator and configured to split an effluent from a primary column and deliver a portion of the effluent to waste and a portion of the effluent to the modulator, or a second splitter disposed downstream from the modulator and configured to split the effluent to deliver a portion of the effluent to waste and a portion of the effluent to a secondary column.
