  1. 1. Refining the particulate matter airway deposition arising from indoor cooking-related biomass combustion for children in the Haramaya district in Ethiopia

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Kasper Malmborn; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Air pollution exposure; charcoal; wood; animal dung; low-income setting epidemiology; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Air pollution, a global issue affecting millions of individuals, is linked to adverse health effects on the respiratory system, but also to e.g., cancer and cardiovascular ailments. In low-income countries, cooking is often conducted by biomass-combustion, causing women and children to be exposed to high levels of indoor air pollution. LÄS MER

  3. 2. DRY POWDER FOR INHALATION - INFLUENCE OF MIXING PROCESS AND ADDITION OF MAGNESIUM STEARATE

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Författare :Love Ivarsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :inhalation; drug delivery; pulmonary drug delivery; API; FPF; FPD; DD; Turbula; Diosna; mixing energy; mixing time; mixing speed; pharmaceutical technology; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : For efficient treatment of many diseases of the lung, it is beneficial to deliver the medicine to the respiratory tract directly. This ensures a rapid response since it can enter the bloodstream directly through the alveolar epithelium. Consequently, also decreases systemic effects due to the local treatment. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Deposition of a Polydisperse Aerosol in the Upper Respiratory Tract

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Fanny Bergman; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Aerosol; particle deposition; upper airways; inhalation measurements; polydisperse aerosol generation; mouth-throat model; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Inhaled pharmaceuticals are commonly used in the treatment of respiratory disease. This method of administration has many advantages but also poses a problem with particles being lost before reaching the target site. Particle deposition in airways is mainly an effect of inertial impaction, gravitational settling and diffusion. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Lung Deposition of Airborne Particles - Resolved in a Single Breath

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Amalia Larsson Hurtig; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Aerosols; Airborne particles; Inhalation; Lung deposition; Respiratory tract deposition; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Exposure to airborne particulate matter has been declared to cause cardiovascular and respiratory disease as well as cancer. By understanding how the aerosol particles deposit in our respiratory tract, we can understand how the exposure to airborne particles affect our health. LÄS MER
