Coacervation with surfactants: From single-chain surfactants to gemini surfactants
Advances in Colloid and Interface Science, 2017Coacervation is a spontaneous process during which a colloidal dispersion separates into two immiscible liquid phases: a colloid-rich liquid phase in equilibrium with a diluted phase. Coacervation is usually divided into simple coacervation and complex coacervation according to the number of components.

A mixture of synthetic phospholipids containing 90% Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine and 10% Dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol was tested for its suitability as surfactant substitute. Different methods of preparation were employed. The substance was studied by chromatography, Wilhelmy balance, and in rabbits after tracheal instillation during mechanical ...

Surfactant is a metabolically active assembly of phospholipids and surfactant-specific proteins that is essential for normal lung mechanics. The surfactant proteins SP-A and SP-D also have important innate host defense functions. Surfactant metabolism in the developing lung differs from the adult lung by having slower kinetics of secretion with a ...

Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2002
An intact and well-functioning pulmonary surfactant system is critical for normal respiration and protection from lung infection. Surfactant is comprised of phospholipids that reduce surface tension and greatly reduce the work of breathing. The other major component consists of surfactant-associated proteins, which optimise the biophysical function of ...

Polymer–surfactant and protein–surfactant interactions
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2005The phase behavior and some physicochemical properties of homopolymers (HP) and hydrophobically modified (HMP) polymers, as well as of polyelectrolytes (PE) and proteins (PR), in the presence of aqueous surfactants, or their mixtures, are discussed.

Surfactants are molecules with dual characteristics that give rise to adsorption at interfaces and aggregation in solvents: as such, surfactants have found a multitude of applications in nanotechnology. This chapter describes the fundamental properties that are the origins of the rich phase and structural behavior resulting in formation of adsorption ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1974
The observed changes in surfactant, the surface-active material which lines the alveoli of mammalian lungs, suggest a secondary effect rather than causation, which is no less important to pulmonary function. In the complex interdependency of many factors permitting adequate gas exchange, it appears that pulmonary surfactant has a significant yet ...

The mammalian lung is stabilized by a specialized material, the pulmonary surfactant, which acts by reversibly reducing the surface tension at the air–liquid interface of the lung during breathing. Pulmonary surfactant contains approximately 90% lipid and 10% proteins. Dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine, the major lipid component, appears to be primarily

How easy it is to dismiss the humdrum surfactant! After all, its structure is unglamorous by present-day norms. And the surfactant has been entrenched in so many areas of commerce for so many decades that its chemistry might seem old and tired. The purpose of this review is to persuade the reader otherwise, all the while focusing on a remarkable new ...
