The invention provides a device and a process for analysing the effect of a concentration of a gas on a sample, especially measurement of the gas concentration within a sample, and/or measurement of the effect of the absorption and/or desorption of a gas by the sample, using spectrophotometric detection of a gas-sensitive and optically detectable analyte of the sample while measuring the concentration of the gas in a gas composition that is continuously delivered to each sample well in order to contact the samples with a gas having a predetermined and/or measured concentration, respectively a pre-determined and/or measured partial pressure.

Suggested is a method for the extraction of fragrances from natural starting material consisting of the following steps: (a) providing a sample of the natural starting material in a pressure proof sample container; (b) bringing in the sample in contact with liquefied petroleum gas of propane and/or butane gas, preferably; (c) extracting the fragrances from the natural starting material provided in step (b); (d) venting of the pressure proof sample container, while the liquefied petroleum gas is evaporated and the fragrances is maintained as residue in the container; and optionally (e) dissolving the fragrances in a suitable solvent.

The present application provides a gas inlet structure for a reagent kit, which includes a gas inlet connecting pipe and a plugging pipe arranged at one end of the gas inlet connecting pipe. The plugging pipe is provided with a gas nozzle plug, and the plugging pipe is in interference fit with the gas nozzle plug. The gas nozzle plug is provided with a gas inlet blind hole that is arranged along an axis direction of the gas nozzle plug, and an opening end of the gas inlet blind hole faces the gas inlet connecting pipe.

Ampoules for a semiconductor manufacturing precursors and methods of use are described. The ampoules include a container with an inlet port and an outlet port. The ampoules comprise an inlet plenum located between the inlet port and the cavity and an outlet plenum located between the outlet port and the cavity. A flow path is defined by a plurality of tubular walls and a flow ingress openings of the ampoule adjacent bottom edges of the tubular walls, through which a carrier gas flows in contact with the precursor.
