Molecular Weight Dependence of the Depletion Attraction and its Effects on the Competitive Adsorption of Lung Surfactant

Albumin competes with lung surfactant for the air-water interface, resulting in increased surface tension. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) and other hydrophilic polymers restore the normal rate of surfactant adsorption to the interface, which re-establishes low surface tensions on compression. PEG does so...
