[0002] The analysis of organic components in solid samples can reveal the composition, structure and properties of substances, and is the research basis in the fields of chemistry, chemical engineering, agricultural production, petroleum industry, environmental science, etc. However, organic components are of various types and complex structures. At present, the detection of complex organic components in solid samples mainly uses a variety of physical and chemical separation methods, such as commonly used solid-liquid extraction, ion exchange, chromatography separation, etc. to separate and purify organic components from solid samples, and use infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance detection. Among them, chromatography-mass spectrometry is widely used due to its high sensitivity and selectivity and qualitative and quantitative capabilities. However, the traditional analysis method of organic components in solid samples still has problems such as complex operation, serious matrix interference, and huge sample consumption. Due to the limitation of standard products, only a small amount of organic components can be qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed, which cannot meet the requirements of high-throughput identification and quantification of new organic components. Therefore, there is a lack of suitable organic component system analysis technology for solid samples with small sample volume and low organic component concentration. Summary of the invention
