简要总结
Nanoparticles (NP) are particles whose length, width and height are less than 100 nanometres. Over the past decade, industrial applications of NP have increased dramatically. Despite their widespread use, their true impact on human health remains unknown and poorly studied. NP exposure in humans primarily occurs via inhalation through the respiratory system. The aim of this study is to estimate the relationships between the nanoparticle load in the lung and bronchi and some interstitial lung diseases. In the aftermath of human exposure to asbestos, the pathological consequences of environmental exposure to nanomaterials could be evaluated upon a mineralogical analysis of pulmonary samples.

结局指标
主要结局
NP load
时间窗: day 1
The load of NP is a composite outcome. It will be described according to their level of presence (high, moderate or low), their size and chemical analysis. Analysis: The presence of NP will be assessed by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The elemental compositions of both the particulate (pellet) and the soluble (supernatant) fractions of each sample will be measured by means of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The samples for which DLS and ICP-OES corroborated a relatively stronger NP load will be observed under transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and field-emission electron microscopy (FESEM).
次要结局
- Correlation between NP load in the lung and observed lung interstitial diseases(Day 1)
- Correlation between NP load in the lung and NP load in urine specimen(Day 1)
- Correlation between NP load in the lung and NP load in blood specimen(Day 1)
