“…3,27 By studying the individual role of each primary subset of algal exudates as demonstrated in the studies above, the fundamental interactions at the ocean's interface and consequent aerosol surfaces can be determined and include interfacial adsorption, 22,27 binding interactions, 28,29 and reaction mechanisms. 30 Biogenic surfactants have also been explored in more complex systems and have been shown to alter surface features, 31 enhance interactions, 24,25,32,33 and influence the overall film properties. 34 Ex situ analysis of the interfacial regime of native marine systems has been reported, with some studies extending to surface tension measurements, 31 Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), 35,36 and sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy.…”
