Abstract We studied the action of sodium metabisulphite on mucociliary transport in a frog palate epithelial injury model hypothesizing that it may be useful for the study of mechanisms of airway injury. Sodium metabisulphite MB releases SO2 on contact with water. SO2 is a pollutant in automobile fumes and may play a role in the exacerbation of airway disease symptoms. We first investigated its effect on mucociliary clearance. MB 10-1 M increased mucociliary clearance time MCT by 254.5 57.3 of control values p 0.001 n 7 . MB l0-4 and 10-2 M did not interfere with mucus clearance time compared to control values. In MB-treated frog palates MCT did not return to control values after one hour control 97.3 6.3 vs. MB l40.9 46.3 p 0.00l n 7 . Scanning EM images of epithelial tissue were morphometrically analyzed and showed a 25 l2 loss of ciliated cells in MB palates compared to controls with an intact .
