Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9000442A1] A reaction vessel for receiving minimal quantities of fluid probes to be heated and releasing vapourable substances upon heating comprises a small sample-receiving tube (11), the volume of which is considerably greater than said minimal quantities in order to facilitate manipulation; the bottom part of said tube is closed, the top is open and can be closed by means of a lid (12). An insert (14) greatly reducing the volume of the internal space (13) of the sample-receiving tube (11) extends from the lid (12) into said internal space (13); the lower extremity of said insert (14) is set tightly against a conical part (11'''') of the small sample-receiving tube (11), defining a small separate lower reaction chamber (39).
