  • Compositions, Methods, and Applications of a Synthetic Surfactant
    Publication number: 20240065263
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a synthetic Túngara frog foam composition. The synthetic Túngara frog foam composition comprises six synthetically synthesized ranaspumin proteins (RSN-1 to RSN-6) wherein only the active segments of the RSN proteins are synthesized and six synthetically synthesized polysaccharides comprising four tetrasaccharides, a heptasaccharide and a nonasaccharide. Multiple novel applications of the foam are described.
