Mouse Lung Structure and Function after Long-Term Exposure to an Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide Level Predicted by Climate Change Modeling

Climate change models predict that atmospheric carbon dioxide [CO2] levels will be between 700 and 900 ppm within the next 80yrs. In this study we aimed to assess the respiratory structure and function effects of long-term exposure to 890ppm CO2 from preconception to adulthood using a mouse model.

Fragranced consumer products: effects on asthmatic Australians

Most asthmatics would prefer workplaces, healthcare facilities, and environments that are fragrance-free, which could help reduce adverse effects

The effect of diesel exhaust exposure on blood-brain barrier integrity and function in a murine model

Epidemiological studies indicate that exposure to diesel exhaust (DE) is associated with vascular-based disorders.

Factors influencing the assessment of lung function in mice with influenza-induced lung disease

The constant-phase model (CPM) is commonly fit to respiratory system input impedance (Z rs) to estimate lung mechanics.
