Oxygen Transport Through a Model Lung Surfactant Surface Layer: Influence of the Film Compression on the Kinetics

  • Chapter
Oxygen Transport to Tissue XIV

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 317))

Abstract

Inhaled oxygen can reach the lung tissue only after having penetrated the so-called lung surfactant surface layer (LSSL) which lines the alveoles at the air/water interface.
