β¦ Synopsis
Use of early solvent vapor exits for concurrent eluent evaporation with the loop-type interface has two purposes: protection of the GC detectors from large amounts of solvent vapors and more efficient discharge of the vapors to accelerate eluent evaporation and help avoiding broad solvent peaks. Use of a retaining precolumn after the uncoated pre-column can rule out losses of solute materials that form sharp peaks.

CoupledLC GCintroduces largevolumes of solvent (LC eluent) into GC Instead of introducing all of the solvent vapors into the GC detector, it may be preferable to release them through a solventvapor exit This exit is closed after passage of the solvent vapors in order to obtain full sensitimty during analysis by introduction of the whole solute material into the detector Moving needle injection [ 11 and Programmed Temperature Vaporizing (PTV) injection in the solvent split (split/splitless) mode [2] were the first techniques for separating the solvent

Concurrent solvent evaporation using the loop-type HPLC-GC interface requires that the GC oven temperature be above the eluent boiling point at the given carrier gas inlet pressure in order to prevent eluent flowing into the GC capillary column. Corresponding oven temperatures representing minimum o
Presently, two coupling techniques are used for directly introducing HPLC fractions into capillary GC: The retention gap technique (involving negligible or partially concurrent solvent evaporation) and fullyconcurrent solvent evaporation. While the former involves use of a conventional on-column inj
