English term or phrase: mist
Contexto: se trata de una boquilla pulverizadora que pulveriza heparina sobre unas jeringas para que la sangre no coagule (al tomar la muestra de sangre).

Frase (que se repite mil veces):
20 microlitres of anticoagulant solution are atomized into FINE MIST DROPLETS as the anticoalutan solution existe the second chamber (de la boquilla pulverizadora.

No me decido, no sé si traducir mist por lluvia, niebla, velo
si poner gotitas en fina lluvia, en fino velo??????
Gracias anticipadas. MPS

Gracias a todos. Lo estuve mirando con calma y sí se usan pulverizadores con boquillas que producen neblinas. Si parece ser un término tècnico, así que lo pondré. MPS.

se atomiza en gotas muy finas


Explanation:
Cuando dices que se atomiza ya queda claro lo que es. Usar niebla, neblina, velo, etc. no me parece adecuado en el contexto. Si en algún momento necesitas un sustantivo, puedes usar la expresión "la solución atomizada".
