title: [Use of the expired air condensate in the study of biochemistry of bronchial contents in patients with bronchial asthma].
abstract: A total of 7 patients with premorbid adjustment (PA) and 13 patients with bronchial asthma (BA) were comparatively studied for the content of calcium, magnesium and biogenic amines (histamine, serotonin) which were assessed with atom absorption spectrophotometry and fluorimetry in the condensate of expired air (CEA), fluid of the bronchial wash-off (FBW) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). It was revealed that the studied values in CEA were similar to those in FBW and BAL. The results obtained indicated that CEA adequately demonstrated the biochemical composition of bronchial contents in various generations and alveoli. CEA availability and high informative value permitted it to be employed in the research into the mechanisms of bronchial obstruction as well as in the control for the efficacy of BA and PA treatment.
