A method and a fluidic network for acquiring and injecting a chromatographic sample into a chromatography system flow include a metering pump module, a sample needle, a needle seal and an injection valve. The metering pump module includes a metering pump and a pressure transducer in serial fluidic communication. When the injection valve is in a first valve state, the injection valve is configured to fluidically terminate ports of the metering pump module. When the injection valve is in a second valve state, the injection valve is configured to fluidically couple a fluidic path that includes the metering pump module and sample needle into the system flow of a chromatography system without resulting in a substantial change in the pressure of the system flow.

The present disclosure relates to methodologies, systems, apparatus, and kits for controlling fluid flow within a chromatography system. A makeup pump is configured to pump a makeup fluid into the chromatography system downstream of the column. A first restrictor is located upstream of a detector and downstream of both the makeup pump and the column. Decreasing an output volume of the makeup pump can direct an output from the column through the first restrictor to the detector. Increasing an output volume of the makeup pump can direct the output from the column to a second restrictor located downstream of the makeup pump and the column and in parallel with the first restrictor and the detector.

The present disclosure relates to methodologies, systems, apparatus, and kits for introducing a sample within a chromatography system. A makeup pump is configured to pump a makeup fluid through a first restrictor into the chromatography system upstream of the column and downstream of a mobile phase pump. The first restrictor is located upstream of a column and downstream of makeup pump and a sample fluid pump. Decreasing an output volume of the makeup pump can direct a sample fluid from the sample fluid pump through the first restrictor to the column. Increasing an output volume of the makeup pump can direct the sample fluid to a second restrictor located downstream of the makeup pump and in parallel with the column and the detector.

The present invention provides a novel method that is capable of detecting a trifluridine-related substance from a sample containing trifluridine or a salt thereof by high-performance liquid chromatography comprising two steps that are performed under gradient conditions. More specifically, the method is for detecting a trifluridine-related substance, the method comprising the step of subjecting a sample containing trifluridine or a salt thereof to high-performance liquid chromatography using a mobile phase composed of an organic phase and an aqueous phase, wherein the step of high-performance liquid chromatography comprises steps 1 and 2 that satisfy the following requirements: Step 1: the percentage of the organic phase in the entire mobile phase is 1 to 14% by volume; and Step 2: after step 1, elution is performed by applying a gradient of increasing the percentage of the organic phase in the entire mobile phase.

The present invention provides a preprocessing device of a more compact structure, and an analysis system provided with the same. A preprocessing device (1) includes a container holding section (12), a filtration port (30), and a transport arm (24). The container holding section (12) holds a separation container (50) and a collection container (54). The filtration port (30) separates a sample by applying pressure to a sample in the separation container (50). The transport arm (24) transports the separation container (50) and the collection container (54) held by the container holding section (12) from a predetermined transport position. The container holding section (12) holds the separation container (50) and the collection container (54) in an annular or arch-shaped holding region formed on an outer circumference of the filtration port (30), and sequentially moves the separation container (50) and the collection container (54) to the transport position by shifting the separation container (50) and the collection container (54) in the circumferential direction of the holding region.
