Effect of kerosene combustion gases on the pulmonary tissue in mice
This study aims to throw light on the harmful effect of kerosene combustion on the respiratory system in mice. Experimental animals were exposed to combustion gases of kerosene for 2, 4 and 6 hours/day for 5 days a week. Exposure was lasted for 8 consecutive weeks. Histopathological changes were ex...
