摘要

Synthetic pulmonary surfactants having antioxidant properties consisting of a complex of a polypeptide, with an antioxi- dant moiety, having an alpha-helical structure and a lipid consisting of one or more of the lipids associated with natural pulmon- ary surfactant were prepared. These surfactants are useful in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome.
