Abstract: did not yield the expected results, recent data show atypical changes in DNA content per cell distributions. Ozone exposures also were expanded to include DNA measurements and cytology, ranging up to 72 h postexposure. Progress was achieved in developing a new method for quantitating pulmonary macrophage phagocytosis in rats using micron-sized fluorescent spheres. New methods for determining alkaline phosphatase, DNA content, and protein also were under development. Plans are to continue developing cytological and biochemical markers for measuring atypical cellular changes, including macrophage function, and to emphasize exposing experimental animals to particulates and gaseous agents for studying dose-damage relationships.
