A murine inhalation model to characterize pulmonary exposure to dry Aspergillus fumigatus conidia.
Most murine models of fungal exposure are based on the delivery of uncharacterized extracts or liquid conidia suspensions using aspiration or intranasal approaches. Studies that model exposure to dry fungal aerosols using whole body inhalation have only recently been described. In this study, we aim...
