Effect of Nanoparticles on the Bulk Shear Viscosity of a Lung Surfactant Fluid
L. P. A. Thai, F. Mousseau, E. K. Oikonomou +2
Inhaled nanoparticles (< 100 nm) reaching the deep lung region first interact with the pulmonary surfactant, a thin lipid film lining the alveolar epithelium. To date, most biophys…
Design and applications of a fluorescent labeling technique for lipid and surfactant preformed vesicles
Fanny Mousseau, Jean-François Berret, Evdokia K. Oikonomou
Amphiphilic molecules such as surfactants, lipids and block copolymers can be assembled into bilayers and form vesicles. Fluorescent membrane labeling methods require the use of dy…
On the rheology of pulmonary surfactant: effects of concentration and consequences for the surfactant replacement therapy
L. P. A. Thai, F. Mousseau, E. K. Oikonomou +1
The role of pulmonary surfactant is to reduce the surface tension in the lungs and to facilitate breathing. Surfactant replacement therapy (SRT) aims at bringing a substitute by in…
