To define the amount of epithelial lining fluid (ELF) that is recovered during bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in the pediatric age group, we measured albumin and urea concentrations in serum and BAL fluid (BALF) of 37 children aged 3-15 years without bronchopulmonary disease. The children were studied
