We previously showed that 1 hr exposures to submicrometer sulfuric acid (H2SO4) aerosol at 100 and 1000 micrograms/m3 altered the bronchial mucociliary clearance of monodisperse 7.6 micron MMAD 99mTc-labelled ferric oxide (Fe2O3) in healthy, nonsmoking humans. The 7.6 micron particles were primarily deposited in the larger bronchial airways, where submicrometer H2SO4 has very little deposition. To determine the extent that submicrometer H2SO4 aerosol affects clearance from the more distal ciliated airways, we measured the clearance of a monodisperse 4.2 micron MMAD Fe2O3 aerosol in eight other healthy nonsmoking subjects. A greater fraction of 4.2 micron particles deposited in distal conductive airways. Bronchial mucociliary clearance was slower following 1 h nasal H2SO4 inhalations at 100, 300 and 1000 micrograms/m3 than after sham exposures, while mucociliary transport rates within the trachea and indices of respiratory mechanics were unchanged. A comparison of the effects of 1 h exposures at 100 micrograms/m3 on the clearance of 7.6 and 4.2 micron particles suggests greater physiological response in distal ciliated airways than in larger central airways.
