Surfactant Activation

Surfactant Activation is a physiological process in the context of fetal-to-neonatal transition that refers to the functional maturation of pulmonary surfactant, characterized by the transformation of inactive lamellar bodies into active tubular myelin structures, enabling reduction of alveolar surface tension and facilitating effective lung expansion at birth.
