The invention relates generally to a nebulizer, for example, of ultrasonic nebulizer ( 30 ) having a bowl shaped container ( 12 ) and a tubular energy transmitter in the form of acoustic transmitter pipe ( 34 ). One end of the acoustic transmitter pipe ( 34 ) is immersed in the liquid ( 14 ) of the container ( 12 ). The bowl shaped ultrasonic transducer ( 16 ) is operatively coupled to the bowl shaped container ( 12 ) for transmission of ultrasonic energy to the liquid ( 14 ) and acoustic transmitter pipe ( 34 ). Absorption of transmitted energy by the liquid ( 14 ) forces the liquid ( 14 ) toward an upper end of the acoustic transmitter pipe ( 34 ) where it is nebulized in the form of an aerosol. The invention also relates generally to a device and method for delivering a substance in an aerosol form into a cellular organism, and a hand held device for delivering a substance to a cellular organism.
