HydraMist – Simultaneous Cold Vapor-Pneumatic Nebulization Spray Chamber

Glass Expansion’s new HydraMist spray chamber can be simultaneously used to determine As, Se, Sb and Hg via hydride generation, in addition to the determination of non-hydride forming elements using conventional pneumatic nebulization. The performance of the HydraMist was evaluated on an Agilent 5100 SVDV ICP-OES, and, when paired with a SeaSpray nebulizer, the detection limits for the hydride forming elements were improved between 15- and 50-fold without compromising the analytical performance of the non-hydride forming elements.
