Resumen
Pulmonary surfactant is a very important product in the medical treatment of the syndrome of insufficiency respiratory in
neonates. The synthesis of this surfactant in labs need to optimize the rate of spreading in the alveolar interstitial liquid
obtaining a monolayer of the phospholipids membrane base capable to maintains several of the dynamical properties of
the respiratory system during breathing. The recover of theses mechanical properties has to be archived using the
minimal quantities of product and with the optimal proteins composition (SP-B in special). In this paper we show our
results of obtaining and process speckle pattern images of the spreading of phospholipids membrane composed the
matrix of this product (DPPC) when physiologic interstitial liquid are presented.
