A sample introduction device 10 includes a tube holding section 21 and a sample removing mechanism 40. The sample removing mechanism 40 removes a sample 6 in a sample tube 2 held by the tube holding section 21. Thus, in the sample introduction device 10, the sample 6 in the sample tube 2 held by the tube holding section 21 can be automatically removed. As a result, the operator no longer needs to perform an operation of taking out the sample 6 from the sample tube 2. Thus, a work load on the operator can be reduced.

An opening sealing structure is provided with a housing, a step portion, a seal cap, an elastic sealing member, and a cap fixture. The housing has a cap mounting portion having a a cylindrical shape. The step portion is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cap mounting portion and has a side surface facing the base end side of the cap mounting portion. The side surface of the step portion is inclined along the circumferential direction of the cap mounting portion from the tip end side of the cap mounting portion to the base end side and its inclination angle is smaller on the base end side of the cap mounting portion than on the tip end side. The cap fixture has a cap holding portion movably engaged with the seal cap in a circumferential direction of its outer peripheral surface and an elastic portion connected to the cap holding portion. The elastic portion is provided with a protrusion which engages the side surface of the step portion.

A vaporizer device and associated methodology for providing accurate sampling through substantially efficient, complete and uniform single pass vaporization of a liquid sample by avoiding liquid pre-vaporization and downtime attributable to system damage from incomplete vaporization, particularly in the distribution, transportation, and custody transfer of natural gas. The vaporizer device includes at least one input port for receiving a liquid sample, a channel for directing the liquid to a vaporizer core and a heating assembly within the vaporizer core configured to flash vaporize the liquid sample. The vaporized sample can then be passed to an outlet for sample analysis.

Certain embodiments described herein are directed to systems and methods that can be used to analyze species in a fluid stream. In some configurations, a sorbent tube effective to directly sample aromatics and/or polyaromatics in a fluid stream is described.

The present disclosure relates to an article inspection system and method, an electronic device, and a storage medium, and relates to the field of security inspection technology. The system includes: a pre-concentration sampling module configured to concentrate and sample gas molecule of the article under inspection to obtain a sample; a gas chromatography module; an internal circulation gas path module; and an ion migration tube module connected to the internal circulation gas path module and configured to form a fingerprint spectrum of the article under inspection from a spectrum of the pre-separated sample molecules, so as to identify a kind of the article under inspection according to the fingerprint spectrum. The present disclosure improves the efficiency and accuracy of article inspection, and realizes intelligent inspection of articles.

At least one of method information representing an analysis execution method to be used for analysis of a sample and device information for specifying the configuration of an analysis device is acquired as analysis information by an analysis information acquirer. Syringe information for specifying the configuration of a syringe is acquired by a syringe information acquirer. Based on the analysis information and the syringe information, whether the syringe is suitable for analysis of the sample is judged by a judge. The result of judgement by the judge is presented by a presenter.

A member linking mechanism, pairable with a gas chromatograph, which has a small and simple configuration, and is capable of linking two members together with a required fastening force even in a limited space. The member linking mechanism includes a first member having a member linking part with an opening at its distal-end surface; a second member to be linked to the member linking part of the first member; an elastic sealing member sandwiched between the first and second members so as to seal the opening of the distal-end surface of the member linking part; and a linking member for linking the first and second members together via pressure. The linking member includes: a linking member body configured to hold an end part, of the second member, adjacent to the first member; and an elastic deformation part provided to the linking member body.

The present invention relates to a plastic reference material and a method of manufacturing the same, wherein the concentration of at least one chemical substance is characterized from a signal intensity of the chemical substance and a signal intensity of the isotope-labeled chemical substance of the chemical substance obtained using the pyrolysis GC-MS instrument by weighing a mass of a candidate material for the plastic reference material using a balance, weighing an isotope-labeled chemical substance of the chemical substance using a balance, preparing a mixed solution by dissolving the weighed candidate material for the plastic reference material and the weighed isotope-labeled chemical substance in a solvent, introducing a product resulting from evaporation of the solvent from the mixed solution into a pyrolysis GC-MS instrument, and calculating the concentration of the chemical substance included in the candidate material for the plastic reference material.

When mounting a second assembly 36 to a first assembly 35 that is fixed to a main body, the second assembly 36 engages a second connection element 54 of a non-rotation unit 361 of the second assembly 36 with a first connection element 354 of the first assembly 35. A rotating part 362 is mounted on the first assembly 35 when the rotation unit 362 is rotated. Therefore, an operator can carry out positioning for the second assembly 36 by connecting the second connection element 54 of the second assembly 36 with the first connection element 354 of the first assembly 35. The second assembly 36 can be smoothly mounted on the first assembly 35 that is fixed to the main body. The second connection element 54 of the non-rotation unit 361 connects with the first connection element 354 of the first assembly 35, so that the non-rotation unit 361 is prevented from rotating together with the rotation unit 362 during use and the assemblies that contact the non-rotation unit 361 are protected from damage.
