The two most common toxic oxides of nitrogen are NO and NO2. The more toxic nitrogen dioxide causes severe irritation of the innermost parts of the lungs, resulting in pulmonary edema. In cases of severe exposures, fatal bronchiolitis fibrosa obliterans may develop approximately 3 weeks after exposure to NO2. FataUties can result from even brief periods of inhalation of air containing 200-700 ppm of NO2.
