10、nalyte trapping,flowcell,or lightpipe,and direct eluite deposition and arepresented in the order that they were first used.5.2 The GC eluent must not be routed to a destructive GCdetector(such as a flame ionization detector)prior to reachingthe IR detector as this will destroy or alter the individua
11、lcomponents.It is acceptable to split the eluent so that part ofthe stream is directed to such a detector or to pass the streamback to the detector after infrared analysis if such techniquesare feasible.5.3 Eluent Trapping TechniquesAnalyte trapping tech-niques are the least elaborate means for obta
12、ining GC/IR data.In these techniques,the sample eluting from the chromato-graph is collected in discrete aliquots to be analyzed.Inutilizing such techniques,it is essential that a GC detector beemployed to allow definition of component elution.If adestructive detector is employed,then post-column sp
13、litting tothat detector is required.GC fractions can be trapped in thecondensed phase by passing the GC effluent through a solvent,a powdered solid,or a cold trap for subsequent analysis(see1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E13 on MolecularSpectroscopy and Separation Science
