To better understand the effects of pollution on respiratory diseases is necessary to understand the role of the nose in the filtration and air-conditioning. The air passes through the airways to be purified of contaminants and their conditioning, that is moistened and heated and also leaked to reach the pulmonary alveoli so pure gases by promoting trade. When you are in the nasal cavity, the air is compressed in airfares Straits of 2 mm. These narrow passages not only facilitate the exchange of heat and substances, but also provide the contact between pollutants and to the mucose local lymph organs.
