Fig. 7

Elastic (upper panels) and loss (lower panels) modulus of a Curosurf sample atomized through 3 different Endosurf prototypes. These prototypes are labelled Device (1) (a,b), Device (2) (c,d), and Device (3) (e,f) respectively. The experiments were carried out in the linear regime of deformation (\(\:{{\upgamma\:}}_{0}\) = 5%) and at + 37 °C. The solid lines show the results for the non-atomized sample, for comparison.
