Abstract
The transport of inhaled oxygen to the lung tissue is a rather complicated process. The first steps of this process include the penetration of the oxygen through the so-called lung surfactant surface layer LSSL lining the alveoles at the air / water interface, its diffusion through the underlying aqueous hypophase containing the lipid and protein precursors of the surfactant, and finally, its release from this subphase towards the next cell wall. Additionally, a kind of interaction of oxygen with one or more of the hypophase components can not be excluded.
