Response to ozone in volunteers with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. 1983

Twenty-eight volunteers with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were exposed to 0.0, 0.18, and 0.25 ppm ozone in purified air for 1-hr periods with light intermittent exercise, with exposure conditions presented in random order at 1-month intervals. No statistically significant changes attributable to ozone were found in forced expiratory performance or percent oxyhemoglobin (measured near the beginning and end of each exposure). No ozone-related changes in clinical status were found by interviews that included the time for 1 wk before to 1 wk after each exposure, except that a moderate increase in lower respiratory symptoms was reported by nonsmokers in 0.18 ppm exposures only. Thus, a slight decrement in hemoglobin saturation with ozone exposure (reported in two previous studies of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease subjects) may not be a common occurrence under typical ambient exposure conditions.

D010126 Ozone The unstable triatomic form of oxygen, O3. It is a powerful oxidant that is produced for various chemical and industrial uses. Its production is also catalyzed in the ATMOSPHERE by ULTRAVIOLET RAY irradiation of oxygen or other ozone precursors such as VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS and NITROGEN OXIDES. About 90% of the ozone in the atmosphere exists in the stratosphere (STRATOSPHERIC OZONE).
