Abstract
This work presents the construction of an adult´s human respiratory tract emulator for the study of the particle matter when they get into the respiratory tract. Particles are trapped by filters in a bronchiole-alveolar level, which can be taken to lab for chemical analysis as well as physical and the effects of such particles on the pulmonary tissue.
