Figure 1From: Phospholipid composition and kinetics in different endobronchial fractions from healthy volunteers Fractional composition of phospholipids from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid BALF), tracheal wash (TW) and induced sputum (IS). PC, phosphatidylcholine; PG, phosphatidylglycerol; PI, phosphatidylinositol; SPH, sphingomyelin; LPC, lyso-phosphatidylcholine. Data expressed as mean ± SD. There was no significant difference in overall phospholipids composition between recovery methods.Back to article page
