<p>A sample separation apparatus (200) for separating a fluidic sample, wherein the sample separation apparatus (200) comprises a first fluid drive (202) configured for conducting the fluidic sample to be separated through a first separation unit (204), a second fluid drive (206) configured for conducting the separated fluidic sample through a second separation unit (208) downstream of the first separation unit (204), a flow coupler (210) having two fluid inlet terminals (212, 214) and a fluid outlet terminal (216), the fluid outlet terminal (216) being fluidically connectable to the second separation unit (208), and a fluidic valve (218) having fluidic interfaces (222, 224, 226, 228) with the first fluid drive (202), with the second fluid drive (206) and with the two fluid inlet terminals (212, 214) of the flow coupler (210), wherein the fluidic valve (218) is switchable for performing the separation of the fluidic sample so that the first fluid drive (202), the second fluid drive (206) and the flow coupler (210) are in fluid communication with one another in each switching state of the fluidic valve (218).</p> |
