Granulometry is of considerable importance for the toxic properties of a substance as it influences aspects such as the route of exposure of humans and toxicity by inhalation: the choice of route of administration for animal testing, the efficiency of uptake in an organism and the distribution in the environment.
For this purpose fractions can be divided in:
• Inhalable fraction (the mass fraction of particles that can be inhaled by nose and mouth. Particles > 100 μm are not included in the inhalable convention;
• Thoracic fraction (the mass fraction of the inhaled particles that passes the larynx). The convention for thoracic fraction sets that 50 % of the particles in air with an aerodynamic diameter of 10 μm belong to the thoracic fraction;
• Respirable fraction (the mass fraction of the inhaled particles that reaches the alveoli) The convention for respirable fraction sets that 50 % of particles with an aerodynamic diameter of 4 μm belong to the respirable fraction.
The substance to be registered presented a granulometry (D50 after 2 minutes of ultrasonic treatment) that can be considered as an inhalable fraction.
