bronchiolitis obliterans
inflammatory obstruction of the lung's bronchioles that become damaged and inflamed by chemical particles or respiratory infections, particularly after organ transplants, leading to extensive scarring that blocks the airways
Practical applications of this system can be illustrated through the ‘popcorn disease’ example. In 2003, a HHE was carried out following reports of several cases of serious respiratory problems among employees in a popcorn factory. The rare lung disease (bronchiolitis obliterans) seemed to originate from exposure to a volatile flavouring: diacetyl (butter flavouring).
