Ion exposure chambers that have been designed and tested for use in biological and behavioral research with small animals are described in this report. The chambers exhibit an acceptable degree of uniformity in ion concentration, current density, and electric field within the exposure area. Gaseous by-products of corona discharge (O3 and NO2) have been measured and found to be less than .01 ppm and less than .1 ppm, respectively. Filtered air is fed to the individual exposure chambers, and temperature and humidity are well controlled. Noise due to corona and the air delivery system has been measured.
本报告描述了为小动物生物和行为研究设计并测试的离子暴露室。这些暴露室在暴露区域内的离子浓度、电流密度和电场方面表现出可接受的均匀度。已测量电晕放电的气态副产物(O3和NO2),发现其分别小于0.01 ppm和小于0.1 ppm。过滤后的空气被输送到各个暴露室,温度和湿度得到良好控制。已测量电晕和空气输送系统产生的噪音。
