<p>Magazine for introducing samples into the inlet system of a mass spectrometer. The magazine (22) comprises a flat plate having upper and lower surfaces which are generally horizontal during use. A zig-zag groove (32) is formed in the lower surface engageable by a reciprocable pin (34) to advance the magazine (22) by increments relative to an aperture (12) of the inlet system (10) of the mass spectrometer and recesses (24) are formed in the upper surface of the magazine for receiving tubes (16) containing samples for analysis. The recesses (24) extend transversely to the direction of movement of the magazine (22) and are arranged at a regular pitch equal to that of the groove (32) in the lower surface.</p> |
