| Abstract | The conducting airways of the lungs play an important role in heating and humidification of inspired air and the exchange of highly soluble gases. The authors have developed a mathematical model that describes airway heat, water, and soluble gas exchange which has been used to explain the impact that breathing technique and inspired air conditions have on breath alcohol [blood:gas partition coefficient (/spl lambda/)=1760] concentration. The model predicts that alcohol exchanges entirely with the conducting airways and not within the alveoli. On inspiration, the air reaches equilibrium with the partial pressure of alcohol in the bronchial circulation prior to entering the respiratory bronchioles. On expiration, approximately 20-50% of the alcohol absorbed from the airways during inspiration is redeposited to the airways, depending on the breathing manoeuvre. The degree of exchange of gas delivered via the bronchial circulation depends strongly on /spl lambda/ with the most soluble gases equilibrating most efficiently. An in situ isolated dog trachea preparation was used to quantitate the degree of diffusion- and perfusion-limitation to airway gas exchange for incorporation into the model. Although the level of excretion of the six inert gases differed depending on /spl lambda/, the responses of each gas to changes in blood flow were similar, regardless of /spl lambda/. The results show that tracheal gas exchange is limited equally by perfusion and diffusion. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
