ABSTRACT:
A sample handling system suitable for use with a sample segment and a plurality of capillaries, including a rotatable and vertically translatable arm including an attachment portion to removably receive and retain the sample segment and a manifold adapted to removably retain the sample segment and the plurality of capillaries. The sample segment may be held by the attachment portion by the application of vacuum. Rotatable and vertical translation of the arm may be accomplished by a spindle and guide rails that are resiliently retained. The manifold may include a degassing reservoir and fluid manipulating valves retained by adapters configured to fail if external force is applied to the associated valve.
