Sample Preparation of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid
2008Respiratory diseases are important health problem throughout the world. The bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid obtained by fiber-optic bronchoscopy is a biofluid reflecting the expression of secreted pulmonary proteins and the products of activated cells.

Effects of paraquat on canine bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1989Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) recovers the epithelial lung fluid of the lower respiratory tract. In this study, we have used BAL to detect early pulmonary injury in beagle dogs following an intravenous infusion of 10 mg paraquat dichloride/kg bodyweight.

Automated interpretation and analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
International Journal of Medical Informatics, 2022The cytological analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) plays an essential role in the differential diagnosis of respiratory diseases. In recent years, deep learning has demonstrated excellent performance in image processing and object recognition.We aim to apply deep learning to the automated interpretation and analysis of BALF.Visual images ...

Study of Immune Complexes in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluids
Respiration, 1988Immune complexes (IC) were investigated in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) of 5 patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), 11 with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and 16 with sarcoidosis (S) by three different methods: C1Q-BA, KgB, AKgB-MA. Using AKgB-MA, it is possible to identify the class of antibodies forming the IC.

Neutrophilia in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid of Diffuse Panbronchiolitis
Chest, 1990The clinical and pathologic features of diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB) have been well reported to date, although its pathogenesis remains unknown. In the present study, we performed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) on three patients with biopsy specimen-proven DPB and eight patients with highly probable DPB (six women and five men; one smoker and ten ...

Proteomics and the lung: Analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
PROTEOMICS – Clinical Applications, 2009AbstractOur knowledge of the complex bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) proteome has increased significantly over the last decade; but still, there remain many aspects of the BALF proteome that need characterization. Current proteomic methodologies resolve proteins within limited dynamic ranges: thereby, being limited in their ability to examine ...

Proteomics of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid and Sputum
2008Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and sputum, obtained through more or less noninvasive techniques, contain cells and many soluble compounds from respiratory tract secretions and are, therefore, important sources for the study of the lung and its pathologies.

Galactomannan detection in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid
Current Fungal Infection Reports, 2008Prompt diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) remains a challenge. Galactomannan (GM) assay in serum has been incorporated into diagnostic criteria for IPA, but its performance varies depending on the population in which the test is used. GM assay on bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid aims to improve upon the test by applying it directly ...

Cytomegalovirus in the Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid of Patients with AIDS
Chest, 1990This study investigated the significance of detecting cytomegalovirus in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with human immunodeficiency virus infection. Bronchoscopy with BAL was performed on all patients. Lavage was examined for CMV by cytology, culture, and immunofluorescence.
