Comparative analysis of clinical and model surfactants shows different effects on surface stress in lungs, suggesting roles for protein-enriched multilayers.
Pulmonary surfactant is essential for reducing the surface stress at the alveolar liquid-air interface, but the mechanisms leading to this reduction are still not fully understood. The occurrence of protein...
