Walton 997.6365 Beware the drip pan under the frost-freerefrigerator. It may be the breeding place of "kitchen lung". Kitchen lung is similar to another disease that has plagued humankind since the beginnings of agriculture. Fungal spores from microorganisms that flourish in moldy hay trigger a disease• called "farmer's lung". Not until recently did researchers 'find that spore-bearing micro- organisms can also thrive in air conditioners, home humidifiers, and drip pails under automatic defrosting refrigerators. The presence of these spores in drip pans was discovered by a professor of biological sciences. Thoroughly cleaning drip .amormaummalmom. pans, air conditioners, and humidifiers at least once a month was suggested. The symptoms of both "farmer's lung" and "kitchen lung" are distressing. During only one minute the exposed person can inhale nearly a million spores, whcih are so small they slip by the natural defenses of the lungs. In persons with a special sensitivity, the walls of the air sace of the lungs become inflamed. It is in° the air sacs where the vital function of exchanging oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place. An acute reaction to the invasion can occur four to eight hours 'after exposure. The first symptoms are chills and fever, cough, and shintness of breath.
