Ionic Surface Active Compounds in Atmospheric Aerosols

The Scientific World Journal, 2002
Surfactants in the atmosphere have several potential roles in atmospheric chemistry. They can form films on aqueous surfaces, which lowers the surface tension and possibly delays water evaporation and gaseous transportation across the aqueous interface ...

The structure of latherin, a surfactant allergen protein from horse sweat and saliva [PDF]

, 2013
Latherin is a highly surface-active allergen protein found in the sweat and saliva of horses and other equids. Its surfactant activity is intrinsic to the protein in its native form, and is manifest without associated lipids or glycosylation.

A finite membrane element formulation for surfactants

, 2019
Surfactants play an important role in various physiological and biomechanical applications. An example is the respiratory system, where pulmonary surfactants facilitate the breathing and reduce the possibility of airway blocking by lowering the surface ...

Budesonide/formoterol enhances the expression of pro Surfactant Protein-B in lungs of COPD patients. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Pulmonary surfactants are essential components of lung homeostasis. In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), surfactant expression decreases in lungs whereas, there is a paradoxical increase in protein expression in plasma.
