M.Health Physics 32(2):p 89-100, February 1977. Buy Abstract The literature was critically reviewed to obtain a comprehensive view of the nature of the alveolar microenvironment, with emphasis on properties which may affect the retention kinetics of inhaled materials in the alveoli. The ultrastructure of the air-blood barrier, its permeability characteristics and the nature of the alveolar fluid were examined. Indirect evaluations of the general solute concentrations, pH, and precipitate and chelate forming agents of the alveolar fluid were made. Based on this information, possible mechanisms for the retention kinetics in the lung of inhaled, water-soluble trivalent materials are discussed. Suggestions for future experiments are included. ©1977Health Physics Society Full Text Access for Subscribers: Individual Subscribers Log in for access Log in with your Health Physics Society credentials.
