title: Capillary fused-silica on-column injection of chlorinated pesticides with an ultra-low volume rotary valve.
abstract: Quantitative on-column injections into a fused-silica capillary column were carried out by using a ten-port ultra-low volume rotary switching valve to determine the utility and reproducibility of this rotary valve as an on-column injector. Good reproducibility for repeated injections of chlorinated pesticides was obtained by using an external sample loop and wash loop with the rotary valve. The problems commonly associated with a fine fused-silica or stainless-steel needle on-column capillary injection technique were minimized. The valve was used in the manual mode but can be completely automated with commercially available equipment.
