The automated bioaerosol exposure system: preclinical platform development and a respiratory dosimetry application with nonhuman primates

JM Hartings, CJ Roy - Journal of pharmacological and toxicological …, 2004 - Elsevier
Introduction: Well-characterized inhalation exposure systems are critical for preclinical
testing and pathogenesis studies. The automated bioaerosol exposure system (ABES)
provides a microprocessor-driven inhalation platform that provides exquisite data acquisition
and control over all aspects of inhalation exposures. Because this represents a new
technology, the development and characteristics of the ABES are thoroughly discussed. In
addition to control over homeostatic and aerosol conditions, the ABES incorporates a …
