Ozone inhalation in rats: effects on alkaline phosphatase and lactic dehydrogenase isoenzymes in lavage and plasma

Lactic dehydrogenase (LD) isoenzymes were measured to ascertain the tissue giving rise to the increased LD activity in lavage. Also assayed were acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, creatine kinase activities and protein levels. Because previous investigators reported that ozone increased neutrop...

Zusammenfassung:Lactic dehydrogenase (LD) isoenzymes were measured to ascertain the tissue giving rise to the increased LD activity in lavage. Also assayed were acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, creatine kinase activities and protein levels. Because previous investigators reported that ozone increased neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, white cell differential and red cell morphology parameters were determined. Lavage protein concentration was found to be the most sensitive to ozone exposure. Lavage analysis provided biochemical indicators of pulmonary disease.
