Abstract
Effects of Asian Sand Dust on Respiratory Health
Highlights
The Asian Sand Dust (ASD) aerosol spreads over large areas, including East China, the Korean Peninsula, Japan and the United States [1]
Since ASD adsorbs many kinds of microorganisms including highly pathogenic bacteria or viruses, it may result in exacerbation of pneumonia by the pathogens
Studies have shown that intratracheal instillation of ASD caused bronchitis and alveolitis, whereas ASD heated at 360°C caused considerably fewer effects [5]
Summary
The Asian Sand Dust (ASD) aerosol spreads over large areas, including East China, the Korean Peninsula, Japan and the United States [1]. Since ASD adsorbs many kinds of microorganisms including highly pathogenic bacteria or viruses, it may result in exacerbation of pneumonia by the pathogens.
