Ultrasonic nebulizers (USN) operate by having the hquid sample pumped onto an oscillating quartz plate. The frequency of oscillation of the quartz plate for a commercial USN is 1.4 MHz, for example. The rapid oscillations of the quartz plate break the liquid film into an aerosol. This aerosol is of very fine, uniform droplets, unlike the aerosol from a pneumatic nebulizer. The fine aerosol contains a significant amount of solvent that must be... [Pg.493]
