(20) We investigated the in vivo phospholipidosis-inducing potency of AM and its major nonpolar metabolite, desethylamiodarone (DEA), in rats, their ability to inhibit phospholipases, and also the effects on pulmonary uptake of [14C] AM.
Pulmonic
Definition:
(a.) Relating to, or affecting the lungs; pulmonary.
(n.) A pulmonic medicine.
Example Sentences:
