Surface Active Agents and Their Health-Promoting Properties: Molecules of Multifunctional Significance [PDF]
Pharmaceutics, 2020 Surface active agents (SAAs) are molecules with the capacity to adsorb to solid surfaces and/or fluid interfaces, a property that allows them to act as multifunctional ingredients (e.g., wetting and dispersion agents, emulsifiers, foaming and anti ...

Marine-Derived Surface Active Agents: Health-Promoting Properties and Blue Biotechnology-Based Applications [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2020 Surface active agents are characterized for their capacity to adsorb to fluid and solid-water interfaces. They can be classified as surfactants and emulsifiers based on their molecular weight (MW) and properties.

SPERMICIDAL ACTIVITY OF SURFACE-ACTIVE AGENTS [PDF]
Reproduction, 1962 The spermicidal activities against human spermatozoa of a range of non-ionic, anionic and cationic surface-active agents have been determined with the method of Baker, Ransom & Tynen (1937). Although it has been concluded that surface-tension-lowering properties do not directly influence spermicidal power, the surfacetension/concentration curves of a ...
