Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a system for desorbing and detecting an analyte sorbed on a solid phase microextraction (SPME) device. The system includes a desorption chamber sized to accept the SPME device while defining a void volume of less than about 50 μL; a flow injector in fluid connection with the desorption chamber, the desorption chamber and the flow injector being fluidly connected by at least a flow-insulating fluid connector; a solvent source in fluid connection with the flow injector; and a fluid switch that: in a desorption position, allows the solvent to be sprayed from the flow injector while flow-insulating any desorption solution in the desorption chamber, and in an detecting position, turns off the solvent source while maintaining the fluid connection between the flow injector and the desorption chamber, transferring the desorption solution through the flow-insulating fluid connector to the flow injector as a substantially undiluted plug of liquid.

Claim (Index 2):
The system according to  claim 1 , wherein the flow-insulating fluid connector is dimensioned to reduce or avoid diffusion of desorption solution from the desorption chamber to the solvent flowing to the flow injector when (a) the fluid switch is in the desorption position, and (b) the solvent flows from the solvent source to the flow injector.
