1. A method for providing a reactor, comprising the steps of:
- providing a first passage containing a first reactant;
connecting a heater to the first passage using a connector, where the connector contains a sample;
transporting a mixture of the first reactant from the first passage and the sample from the connector to the heater;
placing the connector within a second passage containing a second reactant;
transporting the second reactant to the mixture of the first reactant and sample; and
heating the mixture of the first reactant and sample and, subsequently, heating the mixture of the first reactant, second reactant, and sample.
