A two-dimensional liquid chromatograph includes a first-dimension
separation channel for guiding a sample injected from a sample injection
part to a first-dimension analysis column using a first-dimension
analysis mobile phase for separation; two trap columns; an analysis
channel for guiding components retained in the trap columns to a
second-dimension analysis column using a second-dimension analysis mobile
phase for analysis; and a channel switching mechanism. The switching
mechanism connects the first-dimension separation channel to one of the
trap columns and connecting the analysis channel to the other of the trap
columns, and also switches connections between the trap columns and the
channels.
