Abstract
Liquid gases (LG), i.e. low boiling compounds with vapor pressures below 5 bar at room temperature, are introduced as solvents for trace analyses. A system for preparin, diluting and handling LG solutions safely and conveniently in 5 to 500 μl amounts was developed as well as a syringe for direct injection of μl‐LG samples into capillary GC. Even technical grade LG are of high purity. GC/FID of LG solutions (starting at −60°C) allows the separation of volatile traces from the solvent peak: e.g., dichloromethane can be measured in the picogram range.

## Abstract Deteriorated performance in capillary GC is often caused by the deposition of nonvolatile components in capillary GC inlets. In many cases this is a limiting factor in trace analysis of complex samples. Volatile solutes of the sample interact with the high boiling material, which leads
