Evaluation of Exhalation Valves [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Occupational Hygiene, 2005
Certification tests currently employed by some industrialized nations to certify respirators require that when challenged with air flow at a constant suction head of 25 mmH2O, the leakage into the facepiece from the exhalation valve(s) should not exceed 30 ml min(-1).

Exhaled NO and exhaled breath condensate pH in the evaluation of asthma control [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine, 2011
Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airways disorder. However, no biomarker of airways inflammation has been included in the assessment of asthma control.To evaluate exhaled NO (FeNO) and exhaled breath condensate (EBC) pH in patients with asthma according to the level of control, and their performance in the identification of not well-controlled patients.

Thoron emanation and exhalation of Slovenian soils determined by a PIC detector-equipped radon monitor

open access: yesNukleonika, 2016
The health risk from thoron (Rn-220) is usually ignored owing to its short half-life (55.6 s), but the generated thoron decay products can cause a significant dose contribution.

Collection of exhaled breath and exhaled breath condensate in veterinary medicine. A review [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Quarterly, 2006
Collection of exhaled breath (EB) and exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a noninvasive method for obtaining samples from the lower airways. While this technique has been well established for the diagnosis of lower respiratory tract diseases in human medicine, only a few studies have been performed in veterinary medicine. This article critically reviews
