A multi-lumen mixing device is described. The multi-lumen mixing device includes a mixer body having an inlet portion and an outlet portion. The multi-lumen mixing device also includes an array of capillary channels within the mixer body, in which each capillary channel has approximately a same length. An inlet for each of the capillaries is proximate to the inlet portion and an outlet for each of the capillaries is proximate to the outlet portion. The array of capillary channels has at least three different cross-sectional areas.

Multi-lumen mixing device for chromatography

A surrogate addition device is described that adds a surrogate compound at a uniform transport rate to a flowing sample stream. The surrogate addition device includes a surrogate reservoir, a flow chamber, and a diffusion barrier. The surrogate reservoir can be configured to contain a surrogate solution where the surrogate solution includes a surrogate compound. The flow chamber includes an inlet port and an outlet port. At least a portion of the diffusion barrier is disposed in between the surrogate reservoir and the flow chamber. The diffusion barrier may include an inner surface that forms a wall of the surrogate reservoir, and an outer surface that forms a wall of the flow chamber. The flow chamber can be configured to receive a flowing sample solution across the outer surface of the diffusion barrier and also to diffuse the surrogate compound from the surrogate reservoir to the flow chamber.
