Lung surfactant lines the gas-exchange interface in the lungs and reduces the surface
tension, which is necessary for breathing. Lung surfactant consists mainly of lipids with a …

An integrated approach is applied to reveal fine changes in the surface-normal structure of
1, 2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-l-serine (DMPS) monolayers at the air–lipid–water …

Studying transfer of bioactive compounds across cell membranes by simulations attracts
growing attention. To perform such calculations accurately, it is necessary to verify the …

The mechanism of superspreading, the greatly enhanced spreading of water droplets
facilitated by trisiloxane surfactants, is still under debate, largely because the role and …

Extensive molecular dynamics simulations at room temperature were carried out for model
films of two dissimilar lipids (DPPC and dicaprin) at the air/water interface. To study the …

Το Πνευμονικό Επιφανειοδραστικό Μονόστρωμα (Alveolar Surfactant Monolayer) που
βρίσκεται στις πνευμονικές κυψελίδες (Alveoli), είναι ένα πολύ σημαντικό συστατικό για την …
