The invention relates to apparatuses and methods for applying a coating material to the collection surfaces of the stages after an impactor is assembled for use. The apparatuses and methods comprise generation of a multimodal droplet aerosol of liquid coating material and delivering it into the impactor. The coating substance improves the trapping of particles on the stages. The apparatuses and methods limit the total amount of coating material applied and confine it to the regions of particle impact opposite the stage orifices, thereby reducing the possibility of chemical interference when analyzing a test aerosol. |
