We compared the prevalence and spectrum of common respiratory viruses among patients with near-fatal asthma, acute exacerbations of asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and the relation of these findings to acute respiratory sympt

Background: The use of Dithiothreitol (DTT) to improve cell dispersion is an integral step in induced sputum examination, which has become an important noninvasive method of assessing airway inflammation. Several studies have shown that sputum treatm

The conventional method for measuring urinary leukotriene E 4 (LTE4) is by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), followed by radioimmunoassay (RIA) or enzyme immunoassay (EIA). We measured urinary LTE4 levels by two methods

Atmospheric pollution increases cardiopulmonary morbidity and mortality by unexplained mechanisms. Phagocytosis of fine particles (PM(10)) by rabbit alveolar macrophages elevates white blood cells (WBC) by releasing precursors from the bone marrow an

An immunoblotting procedure was developed to detect antibody responses in mice and humans to influenza virion proteins. The technique was capable of detecting 1.5 micrograms of haemagglutinin (HA) on nitrocellulose strips at a 1:5000 dilution of a mo
