Description	A new low-cost device suitable for the recently presented sample introduction technique to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP MS), diode laser thermal vaporization (DLTV), is described. The device performance was optimized, compared to a commercial ablation system and applied to the determination of lead and cadmium in whole human blood without any sample treatment. A prearranged calibration set was printed on the paper strip using a piezoelectric dispenser.
