FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE LUNG DEPOSITION [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics: Conference Series, 2013 The lung is an external organ forming the site of unwanted material or particles. In order to protect it, the airways have to be highly effective filters and if the particle deposit they need to be cleared. Inhaled particles can cause a variety of diseases. There are various factors on which the prediction of depositing particles depends, such as age,

Control of Collagen Deposition in Mammalian Lung
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1995 This review considers the mechanisms controlling collagen deposition in mammalian lung in five different states: normal development, fibrosis, erosion, pneumonectomy, and the steady state. Deposition is the net result of positive and negative processes.

Regional Inhaled Deposited Dose of Urban Aerosols in an Eastern Mediterranean City
Atmosphere, 2019 We calculated the regional deposited dose of inhaled particulate matter based on number/mass concentrations in Amman, Jordan. The dose rate was the highest during exercising but was generally lower for females compared to males.

Deposition of Large Particles in Human Lung
Experimental Lung Research, 1987 Twenty-four nonsmoking males, all without history of pulmonary disease, were randomly divided into four groups of six subjects each. The subjects in each group inhaled monodisperse Teflon particles labelled with 111In (half-life 2.83 days); 8.2, 11.5, 13.7 and 16.4 micron aerodynamic diameter, respectively.

In Silico Quantification of Intersubject Variability on Aerosol Deposition in the Oral Airway
Pharmaceutics, 2023 The extrathoracic oral airway is not only a major mechanical barrier for pharmaceutical aerosols to reach the lung but also a major source of variability in lung deposition.
