1 Gather the following, see Table 17, “Recommended parts for injections onto 0.25-mm
fused silica columns,” on page 103:
• Syringe barrel
• Needle, 250-µm or 320-µm
2 Unscrew the syringe barrel cap and remove the spring.

5 Slide the spring and the cap over the needle.
6 Insert the needle into the syringe barrel.
