Abstract

One exogenous surfactant therapy of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is to instillate into the lungs enough phospholipid to form a film at the alveolar interface because it has more similar surface properties that the natural surfactant. Liposomal suspensions are able to transport a large amount of phospholipids in situ; therefore, it is interesting to study the transformation of these vesicles into a surface film.

La dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine — DPPC: La distearoylphosphatidylcholine — DSPC: soybean lecithin — SL (4:4:2) liposomes were spread at the air-physiological solution interface. The spreading kinetics were studied by means of surface pressure, surface potential, and rheological measurements. A theoretical approach to the mechanism of slow transformation of the closed bilayer structures into a surface film has been developed. The properties of surface films formed after spreading of freshly prepared or aged liposomes were compared with those of mixed DPPC:DSPC:SL(4:4:2) monolayers.
