  • Method and apparatus for removal of residual interfering nebulized sample
    Patent number: 5480809
    Abstract: In analysis systems which employ discrete nebulized samples which are developed in a sample chamber, potentially interfering residual traces of the sample are removed in a wash-out, prior to development of a subsequent nebulized sample for analysis, in a considerably shorter time than previously possible by directing a jet of flushing gas through the chamber against the face of the nebulizer, preferably a jet of wash liquid is also directed against the nebulizer, before, after or concurrently with the jet of flushing gas.
