Fine Particle Sprayer
(The sprayer for animal experiments and intratracheal administration)
- Empty
Lung administration on animal experiments, Suitable for spraying of chemical agent, precision coating, and thin film application to micro-areas
The fine particle sprayer is intratracheal administration spray that can spray ultrafine particles. (Order of several tens of μm ) It can administrate trace amount of substance uniformly into a minute targeted area.
The suspension spraying is possible by using special specification.
- Usage examples:
- To uniformly administer a drug in mist form (spray) to both lungs of small animals such as mice, rats, and hamsters at pharmacological efficacy test, pharmacokinetic study, toxicity test, safety test etc.
- To apply a precise coating in the semiconductor manufacturing process by spraying. - It can spray a minute specified amount.
- Excellent usability – spraying with one-hand
Examples of usage
- Spray-based drug application into trachea or lungs on a pharmacological test of animal experiments. (Animals means rats or mice.)
- Pharmacological efficacy test, pharmacokinetic study, devices for pulmonary drug development
- Spraying anesthetic solution
- Ultra thin layer coating uniformly on optical fibers
- Precision microdose coating
Attention: Prohibited to use for medical purposes. No medical approval for this product.
Feature
- Uniform spray with minimal deviation
- Thin layer application is possible on hard-to-reach area.
- Made-to-order spray angle configuration
- Made-to-order production with specified overall weight
- Repair (provide a spare item during repairing)
*Repair fee is TBD (free or paid) – it depends on the damaged condition.

Distribution of spray angle at outlet (simulation result)
Evaluation result of spray angle at the outlet based on CFD simulation, it was more uniform compared to the existing product, as indicated below, with a smaller standard deviation.
*The distribution diagram shows a front view of the outlet. The distribution shows that a more uniform spray is achieved when the area consists of similar color tones evenly spread without concentration.
※The angle gauge indicates the spray angle, which is defined as the angle formed between the spray direction and the needle axis.
| Standard deviation (σ) | The conventional product | Our product |
|---|---|---|
| 1.25 | 0.68 |

- *1 If you require a spray volume of 25 μL, please note that spray performance may vary depending on the liquid (viscosity and type) and the operator’s level of expertise. Share your spraying needs with us, and we will provide the best solution. Contact us anytime.
- *2 The needle and plunger are subject to wear. Please consider replacement when you notice any of the following signs.
If you find any of above conditions, please feel free to contact us.
・When pressing the plunger, the expected pressure is not achieved.
・When pressing the plunger, the filled liquid in the syringe leaks out.
・The spray does not atomize during spraying.
