| Abstract | Spread binary monolayers of surfactant-associated proteins SP-B and SP-C were formed at the air-water interface. Surface pressure measurements showed no interactions between the hydrophobic proteins. The effects of a mixture of SP-B plus SP-C (2:1, w/w) on the properties of monolayers of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), dipalmitoylphosphatidylglycerol (DPPG), and DPPC:DPPG (7:3, mol:mol) were studied. During compression of ternary and quaternary films, containing less than 0.4 mol% or 5 weight% total protein, the proteins were not squeezed out and appeared to remain associated with the film until collapse at surface pressures of about 65-70 mN.m-1. At initial concentrations of total protein of about 0.9 mol% or 10 weight%, exclusion of protein-lipid complexes was observed at 40-50 mN.m-1. Larger amounts of phospholipid were removed by proteins from (SP-B:SP-C)/DPPG films than from (SP-B:SP-C)/DPPC ones. Separate squeeze-out of SP-B (or SP-B plus DPPC) at about 40 mN.m-1, followed by exclusion of SP-C (or SP-C plus DPPC) at about 50 mN.m-1, was observed in (SP-B:SP-C)/DPPC films. This led to a conclusion that there was independent behavior of SP-B and SP-C in (SP-B:SP-C)/DPPC monolayers. The quaternary (SP-B:SP-C)/(DPPC:DPPG) films showed qualitatively similar process of squeeze-out of the proteins. In the ternary mixtures of SP-B plus SP-C with DPPG separate exclusion of SP-B was not detected; rather, the data was consistent with exclusion of a (SP-B:SP-C)/DPPG complex at about 50 mN.m-1. The results imply possible interactions between SP-B and SP-C and the acidic phospholipid. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
