Assessing airway and lung inflammation is important for investigating the underlying mechanisms of asthma and COPD. Yet these cannot be measured directly in clinical research and practice because of the difficulties in monitoring inflammation. Noninvasive monitoring may assist in early recognition of asthma and COPD, assessment of its severity, and ...

Chitin — the second-most abundant biologic polymer, after cellulose — is a tough, cross-linked polysaccharide (see Figure 1) found in the exoskeleton of insects and crustaceans, the cell wall of fungi, and the pharynx, microfilarial sheath, and egg of parasitic worms (helminths).

Nitric oxide (NO) is now considered an important biomarker for respiratory disease. Studies have confirmed that the fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) is elevated in the airways of patients who have asthma in comparison with controls.

exhale is a whisper[s] research group project based on designing and fabricating "a-wearable" body networks for public spaces. The rhythm of networked group breath is used as an interface for interaction, and a mechanism for sharing our bodies' affective non-verbal data.

Exhaled markers of inflammation
Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2001Exhaled markers of inflammation allow completely noninvasive monitoring of inflammation and oxidative stress in the respiratory tract in inflammatory lung diseases, including asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis and interstitial lung diseases.

Measurement of Exhaled Hydrocarbons
2003Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of asthma (1,2), chronic obstructive respiratory disease (COPD) (3), and cystic fibrosis (4). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are unstable compounds with unpaired electrons, capable of initiating oxidation.

IN view of the statements by Brody1, Ritzman and Benedict2, and Blaxter3 to the effect that the ruminant exhales methane, it was deemed necessary to investigate the amount of methane which might be accumulated in the oxygen spirometer during indirect calorimetry experiments with sheep on full rations.

Tobacco companies have long been on the defensive, but a new product, digital vapor cigarettes, offers what seems to be a social compromise: smoke-free smoking or “vaping.” This chapter explains and examines how this controversial product, new to the U.S. and European markets as of 2007, has affected the retail tobacco industry, both reinvigorating its
