Figure 2

Effect of ethanol and acetylaldehyde on human respiratory epithelial ciliary beat frequency. (A), (B) Effect of ethanol on human respiratory epithelial ciliary beat frequency (CBF). Three different concentrations of ethanol (0.1%, filled squares; 0.5%, filled triangles; 1%, open squares) and a control (open circles) were studied at (A) 24°C and (B) 37°C. Data represent the mean and standard deviation of five different experiments. (C), (D) Effect of acetylaldehyde on human respiratory epithelial CBF. Two different concentrations of acetylaldehyde (100 μM, filled squares; 250 μM, filled triangles) and a control (open circles) were studied were studied at (C) 24°C and (D) 37°C. Data represent the mean and standard deviation of five different experiments.
