Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(4):472-480.   Published online April 15, 1998
Purpose : In this study, natural pulmonary surfactant was extracted from bovine lung lavage and its surface activity was determined. To investigate the usefulness of synthetic peptides reconstituted with phospholipid as artificial surfactant, truncated peptides from surfactant protein (SP)-B were synthesized and restored the surface tension lowering activities when appropriately recombined with phospholipid. Methods : Crude natural surfactant(CNS) was isolated from lung lavage by centrifugation...
