Alveolar inflammation

There are many common causes of alveolitis including organic dusts including actinomycetes and fungal spores, animal and plant proteins, bacteria and their products, insect antigens, and certain chemicals. The antigenic properties of some dusts have not yet been determined. It is generally believed that the cause of farmers' lungs is mainly ordinary high temperature actinomycetes. In recent years, domestic scholars have successively reported another strain of thermophilic actinomycetes related to farmers' lungs-Streptomyces heat-absorbing water. Among many antigens, thermophilic actinomycetes are the most common and important, especially micropolyspores followed by ordinary High temperature actinomycetes. The fungus has the form of a fungus, but it belongs to bacteria that grow in compost, soil, food, and contaminated water in moist, warm, and moldy organic matter. A large number of the bacteria are often easy to get sick.
