This significantly updated and expanded new edition presents the
scientific foundations of inhalation research essential to the
design and conduct of toxicologic studies. It explores the full
range of numerous scientific developments in the field, including
recent advances in biology and the rapidly increasing global
concerns and studies on particulate air pollution.
Key topics in the "Second Edition" include:
- new developments in the ultrafine particle health effects and
concentrated aerosol research
- advances in understanding postnatal lung growth and the
deposition and clearance of inhaled particles
- new techniques in toxicity testing
- the explosion of knowledge in the genetic and molecular
realms
- the introduction of a large number of transgenic animal
models
- updated ethical guidelines for animal testing
- the emergence of aerosol medicine
- the growing threat of aerosol-related terrorism
- increased appreciation of nonpulmonary effects of inhaled
substances
- use of medical scanning techniques to study respiratory tract
structure
- the introduction of new inhalation exposure systems
- the emergence of aerosol concentrators for use in air
pollution studies
