Effects of fluorocarbons 11 and 12 on tracheobronchial particle deposition and clearance in donkeys.
Donkeys were exposed to trichlorofluoromethane (FC11), dichlorodifluoromethane (FC12) and an equivolume mixture of the two to determine their effects on tracheobronchial particle deposition and mucociliary clearance. There was no statistically significant evidence of changes beyond those variations observed in corresponding air control tests.
