Brief Summary: Samples of sputum from asthmatic children between 5-17 years will be collected during two years of the study period to perform tests Particle Size Distribution PSD and Shape Analysis SA of the particulate matter in the sputum and a biochemical reaction to evaluate the activity of Heme Oxygenase-1 protein in sputum cell supernatants

Each child will perform Pulmonary Function Testing PFT and Induced Sputum IS as a routine part of diagnosis of asthma

Parents will be asked to complete a questionnaire including questions on their childs respiratory symptoms in the last 12 months as well as socioeconomic factors Parents will be asked to give informed written consent for their childs participation in the study
