The present disclosure is directed to a system and a method for hydride generation. In some embodiments, the system includes an assembly for introducing hydride generation reagents into a mixing path or mixing container, where the assembly includes first chamber configured to contain a first hydride generation reagent and a second chamber configured to contain a second hydride generation reagent. A first plunger is configured to translate within the first chamber and cause a displacement of the first hydride generation reagent, and a second plunger is configured to translate within the second chamber and cause a displacement of the second hydride generation reagent. The assembly further includes base coupling the first plunger and the second plunger together.

A linear transport system can have a carriage guide rail having a first and a second carriage, which are arranged in such a way that they can be moved independently of one another on the carriage guide. The XY table for this linear transport system can comprise a carrying structure and a first and a second linear guide, which are embodied with an angular offset relative to one another and each have a first and a second guide element, e.g., which can be moved relative to one another along a linear track. In one arrangement, the first guide elements of the first and second linear guides are connected to the carrying structure. The second guide element of the second linear guide can be connected to the first carriage and the second guide element of the second linear guide can be connected to the second carriage.
