Surfactant spreading on liquid films in the Stokes regime
Characterizing the spreading of surfactants on the surface of a liquid film is central to our understanding of natural and technological processes ranging from cell propulsion and drug delivery in pulmonary airways to cleaning food processing surfaces ...

Surfactant function in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]
The function of pulmonary surfactant of a group of 14 preterm neonates (birth weight 907 +/- 60 g) who suffered from severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and who had received exogenous bovine lipid extracted surfactant on the first day of life was ...

Thermodynamically consistent description of the hydrodynamics of free surfaces covered by insoluble surfactants of high concentration [PDF]
In this paper we propose several models that describe the dynamics of liquid films which are covered by a high concentration layer of insoluble surfactant.

Bio-inspired pulmonary surfactant-modified nanogels : a promising siRNA delivery system [PDF]
Inhalation therapy with small interfering RNA (siRNA) is a promising approach in the treatment of pulmonary disorders. However, clinical translation is severely limited by the lack of suitable delivery platforms.

Impact of Polymer Nanoparticles on DPPC Monolayer Properties
The application of surface rheology and Brewster angle microscopy on mixed monolayers of DPPC and polymeric nanoparticles (cationic and anionic) showed that the sign of the particle charge affects the dynamic properties of the monolayers less than the ...
