Limitations of using urea to quantify epithelial lining fluid recovered by bronchoalveolar lavage.
American Review of Respiratory Disease, 2015The quantitation of substances in the epithelial lining fluid (ELF) of the lower respiratory tract, as obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), is not precise because of the variable dilution of the ELF by the instilled lavage fluid.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 2015
To assess the acute effect of smoking on the functional activity of alpha1-protease inhibitor (alpha-Pl) in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), we studied 38 smokers (mean age 25 +/- 6.5 yr), who had 2 fiberoptic bronchoscopic lavages in sequence, the first ...

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 ...
