Exploring the role of electrostatic deposition on inhaled aerosols in alveolated microchannels by Ron Bessler, Saurabh Bhardwaj, Daniel Malka, Rami Fishler, Josué Sznitman

“…This effect often leads to superfluous deposition in the extra-thoracic airways at the cost of more efficient inhalation therapy. Since the electrostatic force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between an aerosol and the airway wall, its role has long been recognized as potentially significant in the deep lungs. …”

Molecular Interaction Mechanism and Preservative Effect of Lactone Sophorolipid and Lactoferrin/<i>β</i>-Lactoglobulin Systems by Yanrong Chen, Mingyuan Li, Jing Kong, Jie Liu, Qian Zhang

“…The results showed that the quenching mechanism of LSL on both <i>β</i>-LG and LF was static, but that the non-covalent complexes formed were the result of the different interacting forces: hydrogen bonds and the van der Waals force for the LSL-<i>β</i>-LG system, and electrostatic force for the LSL-LF system. The binding constants of LSL-<i>β</i>-LG and LSL-LF were all relatively small, and the interaction of LSL with <i>β</i>-LG was stronger than its interaction with LF. …”
