Why nebulise for more than five minutes?

The output of the drug and the particle size produced by various nebulisers were assessed, and sensible nebulisation times for sodium cromoglycate calculated.

We suggest that five minutes is an optimum nebulisation time for sodium cromoglycate using these nebuliser co...

During the nineteenth century, it was fashionable for wealthy trophy hunters to assign their own names to species they had shot destined for the museums of Europe.
