Effect of Ambient Temperature Variations on Particle Dimesions in Ultrasonic Nebulizers during Cold Vaporization

Advances in Science, Technology and Engineering Systems Journal, 2017
For human comfort and convenience, appropriate temperature values may not be sufficient enough for the environment that they live in. The moisture content of the air has an important place in this regard. 30% to 65% humidity is desireable for a relaxed and comfortable life.

Comparison of laser ablation, electrothermal vaporization and solution nebulization for the determination of radionuclides in liquid samples by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry, 2006
The performance of solution nebulization (SN), electrothermal vaporization (ETV) and laser ablation (LA) of dried micro-droplets as sample introduction systems for ICP-MS are compared for the determination of several radionuclides in digested biological tissue, nearshore sea-water and river water.

Low-Pressure ICP-AES with Electrothermal Vaporizer and a Pneumatic Nebulizer for Aqueous Sample Introduction

Analytical Sciences, 2005
A typical electrothermal vaporization (ETV) using a tantalum was built for low-pressure ICP-AES. The analytical performance of the ETV was tested and compared with that of a PFA pneumatic nebulizer with a double membrane desolvator (DMD). The limits of detection of the ETV were obtained in the range of 3.4 ng to 758 ng for Zn, Cu, Co, Fe, and Mg, while

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients’ experience using Trelegy as compared with other inhalers [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Respiratory Therapy, 2022
Introduction: Trelegy is a combination inhaler that is often reported to offer benefits over multiple inhalers. We compared Trelegy use with multiple inhalers for adherence, symptoms, medication beliefs, and medication attitudes.

Influence of Mechanical Ventilation Modes on the Efficacy of Nebulized Bronchodilators in the Treatment of Intubated Adult Patients with Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Pharmaceutics, 2023
Background: Little has been reported in terms of clinical outcomes to confirm the benefits of nebulized bronchodilators during mechanical ventilation (MV). Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) could be a valuable method to elucidate this gap. Objective:
