Overview of inhalation toxicology.
The development of inhalation toxicology as a distinct discipline can be traced back well over one hundred years. The technology has advanced in terms of materials and designs used to construct inhalation chambers and the equipment used to generate controlled test atmospheres of a wide variety of gases, vapors, dusts, and droplets. Consideration of metered dose inhalers, a relatively recent con...
متن کاملZinc toxicology following particulate inhalation
The current mini-review describes the toxic effects of zinc inhalation principally in the workplace and associated complications with breathing and respiration. The International ClassiÞ cation of Functioning, Disability and Health Criteria were used to speciÞ cally select articles. Most of the commercial production of zinc involves the galvanizing of iron and the manufacture of brass. The reco...
متن کاملTitanium dioxide: inhalation toxicology and epidemiology.
Titanium dioxide (TiO(2)) is manufactured worldwide in large quantities for use in a wide range of applications and is normally considered to be toxicologically inert. Findings of tumours in the lungs of rats exposed chronically to high concentrations of TiO(2), but not in similarly exposed mice or hamsters, suggest that the tumorigenic response may be a rat-specific phenomenon but nonetheless ...
متن کاملThe inhalation toxicology of p-aramid fibrils.
The pandemic of lung disease caused by asbestos has cast suspicion on any industrial fibrous material that can become airborne in respirable form in workplaces, such that the respirable fibres might be inhaled. Fibre toxicology arose as a sub-specialty of particle toxicology to address the specialised nature of fibre effects and has evolved substantially in the last 25 years. It has yielded val...
متن کاملInhalation Toxicology in the Equine Respiratory Tract
Principles of Inhalation Toxicology The respiratory tract is a unique interface that is specifically designed to permit the absorption of gaseous nutrients. In contrast to the other nutrient absorption system (the gastrointestinal tract) that optimizes absorption through facilitated diffusion or active transport, the respiratory system does not possess specific gas transporters. Rather, it main...
