I am currently researching for Dr. George Thurston in the the Rheology Lab at the University of Texas-Austin. I will be conducting my research to evaluate 
the relationship between surface tension and the red cell membrane. I also 
must come up with a surfactant that model the characteristics of a lung
surfactant; I know that the surface tension of a lung surft. has a mean value
around 45 dynes/cm but there are other characteristics to account for, if any-
one has any suggestions, I would be very grateful. send to:
