A capillary tube holder is provided for holding a capillary tube. The capillary tube holder includes a holder insert and a holder base. The holder insert includes a capillary groove configured for receiving the capillary tube. The holder base is configured for slidably receiving and retaining the holder insert therein.

Capillary tube holder for autosampler

An autosampler system can include a z-axis mount, a carriage, an autosampler arm, and a compression nut. The carriage can be axially positioned on the z-axis mount. The autosampler arm can define an arm extension and an autosampler arm mount. The autosampler arm mount can define an arm mount aperture, an arm mount inner ledge, and an arm mount compressible section, the arm mount aperture configured to receive the z-axis mount and the carriage therethrough. The arm mount inner ledge can extend from an interior of the arm mount aperture, with the arm mount inner ledge configured to receive the z-axis mount therethrough and be supported on the carriage. The arm mount compressible section can define a set of compressible section threading and at least one compressible section slot. The compression nut can be affixed to the arm mount compressible section via the set of compressible section threading.

Autosampler sample probe arm mount

Systems and methods for speciation of chemicals of interest with inline and automatic dilution or addition of other fluids prior to or following speciation with subsequent analysis by ICP instruments are described. A system embodiment includes, but is not limited to, a first valve having a first valve configuration to receive a sample into a holding loop coupled to the first valve and a second valve configuration to transfer the sample from the holding loop; and a second valve having a first valve configuration configured to receive the sample from the first valve and direct the sample to a speciation column to separate one or more species of the sample, the second valve further including a fluid addition port configured to receive a fluid into the second valve to mix with the sample after the sample exits the speciation column.
