Description:
Subjects inhaled hypertonic saline (3%) via an ultrasonic nebulizer with the output set at maximum for 20 minutes. To collect sputum, subjects were asked to expectorate the sputum onto a plastic Petri dish after the 20-min period of inhalation. During the inducing procedure, macroscopic characteristics of the sputum were recorded and adequate plugs of sputum were separated from saliva and processed immediately after expectoration.The complete blood count, platelet count, and serum biochemical analyses were done meanwhile.
