[Fatty acid lipid spectrum in the expired air condensate of persons exposed to moderate-dosage ionizing radiation at the Chernobyl atomic power station].
The fatty acid spectrum of lipids was examined in the expired air condensate (EAC) in health persons and in Chernobyl accident liquidators. Exposure to radiation even to small dosage may cause changes in the fatty acid composition of lipids in the surfactant of the lung and promote to the occurrence of inflammatory respiratory diseases. The changes found in the EAC fatty acid lipid spectrum, which may reflect the status of a pulmonary surfactant, may be used to identify patients with respiratory diseases and be borne in mind in treating these patients.
