Free volume theory applied to lateral diffusion in Langmuir monolayers : atomistic simulations for a protein-free model of lung surfactant

We hereby present a study on lateral diffusion of lipids in Langmuir monolayers. We apply atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to a model system whose composition is consistent with protein-free lung surfactant. Our main focus is on the assessment of the validity of the free volume theory for la...
