We sought to explore this composition dependence experimentally, in an interventional human clinical study, and theoretically, by numerical analysis of upper airway ion and water transport. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> In a double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical study, phonation threshold pressure (PTP) was measured prenasal and postnasal inhalation of hypertonic aerosols of NaCl, KCl, CaCl₂, and MgCl₂ in seven human subjects. Numerical analysis of water and solute exchanges in the upper airways following deposition of these same aerosols was performed using a mathematical model previously described in the literature. <b><i>Results:</i></b> PTP decreased by 9%-22% relative to baseline (<i>p</i> < 0.05) for all salts within the first 30 minutes postadministration, indicating effective laryngeal hydration. Only MgCl₂ reduced PTP beyond 90 minutes (21% below baseline at 2 hours postadministration). By numerical analysis, we determined that, while airway water volume up to 15 minutes postdeposition is dictated by osmolarity, after 30 minutes, divalent cation salts, such as MgCl₂, better retain airway surface liquid (ASL) volume by slow paracellular clearance of the divalent cation. Fall of CFTR chloride flux with rise in ASL height, a promoter of airway acidification, appears to be a signature of permeating cation (NaCl) and nonpermeating anion (mannitol) aerosol deposition. For hypertonic aerosols that lack permeating cation and include permeating anion (CaCl₂ and MgCl₂), this acid-trigger signature does not exist. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Nonpermeating cation and permeating anion hypertonic aerosols appear to hydrate upper airways longer and, rather than provoke, may reduce laryngeal dysfunction such as cough and bronchoconstriction.</p>","PeriodicalId":14940,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aerosol Medicine and Pulmonary Drug Delivery","volume":" ","pages":"64-76"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139735273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For quality control of used impactors, periodic optical inspection of the nozzles of each impactor stage (stage mensuration) is currently the only method sufficiently precise to test whether used impactors are suitable for continued use, in accord with pharmacopeial standards. Here, we demonstrate a new method for quality control of used impactors. The method combines stage-wise pressure-drop measurement with a critical flow venturi (CFV) for air flow management. This technique avoids the unacceptably large uncertainty in conventional air flow rate measurements and instead relies on pressure and temperature measurement upstream of the CFV. These measurements can be made precisely with affordable equipment. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We placed a toroidally shaped CFV downstream of a Next Generation Impactor™** (NGI) and precisely measured the stagnation pressure (±0.02%) and temperature (±0.03%) upstream of this CFV at impactor inlet flow rates close to 60 L/min. Pressure-drop measurements (±0.25%) at stages 3-7 and the micro-orifice collector were made with capacitive diaphragm transducers and with a special lid to the NGI that allowed pneumatic connection to the interstage passageways before and after each impactor stage. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The measured pressure drop values matched, to fractional percentage precision, those predicted by the incompressible flow theory through the nozzles and the compressible flow theory through the CFV. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Practical equipment has been assembled that measures, to fractional percentage precision, the pressure drop through impactor nozzles at precisely managed flow conditions.

Pressure drop measurement therefore can potentially test whether the nozzles of a given stage are within the range specified for continued use for testing of inhalable drug products. Previous such efforts, however, have been hindered by the measurement precision required for making a pass/fail decision about these used impactors. In this study, we articulate the error analysis for a pressure drop measurement system managed with a critical flow venturi (CFV) and show that the resultant uncertainty in the effective diameter of used Next Generation Impactor (NGI) and Andersen-type impactor stages is generally small compared to the specification range. This result enables the user to make a pass/fail decision regarding suitability for continued use. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We develop the equations governing the relationship between stage pressure drop and the effective diameter of each stage of a used impactor. These equations show that pressure drop measurements can indicate only the change (if any) in the effective diameter between a previous measurement and the current measurement. Propagation-of-error principles therefore show that the uncertainty of both measurements affects the resulting uncertainty. <b><i>Results:</i></b> The test uncertainty ratio (analytical power) of a CFV-managed pressure drop measurement system exceeds six for all but stage one of the NGI and for stages -1 and -2 of the Andersen-type impactor. The stage-one nozzle of the NGI is readily qualified with a Class X pin. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> The CFV-managed flow system described in Part I is sufficiently precise to enable a decision to be made about whether used impactor nozzles are suitable for continued use for testing of registered inhalable drug products. Examination of the industrial viability of the technology will require long-term testing in real-world settings with comparison to optical inspection methods.</p>","PeriodicalId":14940,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Aerosol Medicine and Pulmonary Drug Delivery","volume":" ","pages":"11-18"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138451483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
