December 2009 - Meinhard introduces ALPXS, an aerosol-to-liquid particle extraction system for fast air sampling.  The device uses electrostatic precipitation to remove particulates from an airstream moving at 300 L/min, then washes those into a small collection bottle which is ready for analysis by ICP-OES or ICP-MS.  A brochure is available here.  For a copy of your 2010 Winter Conference paper, click here.

January 2004 - Spetec GmbH launches new line of laminar flow boxes - portable clean room technology.

January 2002 - Did you know that we make our HEN microconcentric nebulizer in quartz? We have manufactured it for several years but somehow it was never put on our current Product Catalog. That oversight was corrected today.

December 2001 - We now have PDF versions of our Maintenance Tips and DIHEN Instruction Manual available for viewing or download.

November 2001 - Our website was given a complete makeover. E-mail any comments to us; especially if there is anything missing that you would like to see on our web pages. We will attempt to update our whole website and especially this News page more frequently than in the past.

1999 - In late 1999, J E Meinhard introduced the LB-DIHEN, a large-bore version of the DIHEN. Two papers have been published on the operating characteristics of the LB-DIHEN. The larger capillary design of the LB-DIHEN minimizes blockage and allows operation at lower nebulizer gas pressures than the DIHEN. Check this page later for links to more information about the LB-DIHEN.

1998 - In 1998 we introduced the DIHEN. Please see the DIHEN page for more details.

1997 - J E Meinhard Produces the 50,000^th Nebulizer!
