Surfactant therapy is given routinely to premature newborns with respiratory failure. However, alterations in surfactants have been shown to be a significant factor in some forms of respiratory failure in newborns in animal models of lung injury. To investigate whether antioxidant supplementation mi

The major etiologic agent in neonatal pneumonia and meningitis is group B streptococci (GBS). Nitric oxide (NO) production by alveolar macrophages (AM) in response to Gram-positive bacteria such as GBS and the effect of surfactant on this production have received little attention. We studied product
