Pulmonary Surfactant Function in Alveoli and Conducting Airways [PDF]
Surface tension plays a very important role in aeration of the neonate′s lungs. Pulmonary surfactant, which is inadequate in the premature infant, modifies surface tension during the act of breathing and is necessary for maintenance of alveolar stability. These facts led to the development of the concept that it might be possible to treat the premature

Submicron particle deposition in pulmonary alveoli during cyclic breathing [PDF]
The prediction of deposition eciency of submicron particles in the pulmonary alveoli has received special attention due to its importance for drug delivery systems and for assessing air pollutants health risks. In this work, the pulmonary alveoli of a healthy human are idealized by a three-dimensional honeycomb-like conguration and a fluid-structure ...
