Ultrasonic nebulisers with desolvator

The membrane desolvator is very effective in reducing the solvent loading further when used in conjunction with the ultrasonic nebuliser. This will allow a range of solvents to be used for ICP-AES that would otherwise quench the plasma by almost totally removing the solvent from the sample and only allowing the dried particles containing the elements of interest to enter the source.
