In vitro air–liquid interface (ALI) cell culture models can potentially be used to assess
inhalation toxicology endpoints and are usually considered, in terms of relevancy, between …

Oral inhalation results in pulmonary drug targeting and thereby reduces systemic side
effects, making it the preferred means of drug delivery for the treatment of respiratory …

Envirox is a scientifically and commercially proven diesel fuel combustion catalyst based on
nanoparticulate cerium oxide and has been demonstrated to reduce fuel consumption …

Inhalation is a non-invasive approach for both local and systemic drug delivery. This study
aimed to define the therapeutic window for solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) as a drug …

Background The respiratory system represents a major portal of entry for xenobiotics into the
body, whether they be intentionally administered as in the case of drugs and anaesthetics …

Exposure to occupational and environmental contaminants is a major contributor to human
health problems. Inhalation of gases, vapors, aerosols, and mixtures of these can cause a …

1. We review the specific approaches for lung tissue slices preparation and incubation
systems and the research application fields in which lung slices proved to be a very efficient …

One of the most widely used in vitro particulate matter (PM) exposures methods is the
collection of PM on filters, followed by resuspension in a liquid medium, with subsequent …

This review summarizes the existing literature on the use of in vitro lung slices to study
pulmonary physiology, pharmacology, pathogenesis and toxicity. Since in vitro lung slices …

In vitro studies of adverse cellular effects induced by inhalable substances face a number of
problems due to the difficulties in exposing cultured cells of the respiratory tract directly to …
