Alcohol inhalation is a method of administering alcohol directly into the respiratory system, with aid of a vaporizing or nebulizing device or bag. It is chiefly applied for recreational use, when it is also referred to as alcohol smoking, but it has medical applications for testing on laboratory rats, and treatment of pulmonary edema and viral pneumonia.

Device to vaporize substances for inhalation A vaporization heat wand and vaporization chamber bowl used to deliver vapor through a water pipe A vaporizer or vaporiser, colloquially known as a vape, is a device used to vaporize substances for inhalation. Plant substances can be used ...
Spotting cannabis oil or resin is thought to be particularly harmful to the lungs, as the smoke comes off the oil at such a high temperature. [10] One possible way of minimizing the risks of spotting marijuana is using cooler knives, leading to the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) being vaporised rather than the entire plant matter being burnt.

The normal relaxed state of the lung and chest is partially empty. Further exhalation requires muscular work. Inhalation is an active process requiring work. [4] Some of this work is to overcome frictional resistance to flow, and part is used to deform elastic tissues, and is stored as potential energy, which is recovered during the passive process of exhalation, Tidal breathing is breathing ...
The e-liquid reaches a temperature of roughly 100-250 °C within a chamber to create an aerosolized vapor. [7] Variable voltage devices can raise the temperature. [30] A glycerin-only liquid vaporizes at a higher temperature than a propylene glycol-glycerin liquid. [30]
Findings underscore the potential impact of climate crisis on sleep quality in older adults
Because chlorine is a gas at room temperature, most exposure occurs via inhalation. Exposure may also occur through skin or eye contact or by ingesting chlorine-contaminated food or water. Chlorine is a strong oxidizing element causing the hydrogen to split from water in moist tissue, resulting in nascent oxygen and hydrogen chloride that cause ...
Water temperature is relevant only as a factor influencing the body temperature and heat distribution of the diver, and heat distribution in the diver is mainly relevant as a factor influencing perfusion distribution. Systematic tests have shown that the timing of thermal status is important.
