Figure 2. Effects of nitrite on Cl2 gas dependent mortality.

Figure 2

New Zealand white male rabbits were administered buprenorphine (0.05mg/Kg) 30min prior to Cl2 exposure (600ppm, 45min) and then returned to room air. Nitrite (10mg/Kg) was administered by a single IM injection 30min post-exposure. Mortality was assessed over 18h. Data show Kaplan-Meier survival curves, *P<0.04 between groups determined by the Log-rank test (n=12 per group). Panel B-E: BAL protein, inflammatory cells, differential analyses and IL-8 respectively. Data shown mean ± SEM. *P<0.05 by unpaired t-test.
