Inflammatory cytokines can be monitored in exhaled breath particles following segmental and inhalation endotoxin challenge in healthy volunteers

Abstract Particles in exhaled air (PEx) are generated when collapsed small airways reopen during breathing. PEx can be noninvasively collected by particle impaction, allowing the analysis of undiluted epithelial lining fluid (ELF). We used the endotoxin (LPS) challenge model to proof the concept tha...
