Permeability and Function of Biological Membranes
with the history of cardiac surgery, there may be difficulty in finding the reference to a particular point. Usually, however, the major points are indexed and it is only ones ancillary to cardiac surgery that one must search for. The margins are liberally sprinkled with line drawings of many of the pioneers. The sketches add charm to the presentation, even though they are not always good liken...
متن کاملIonic Permeability of Thin Lipid Membranes
Ultrathin (black) lipid membranes were made from sheep red cell lipids dissolved in n-decane. The presence of aliphatic alcohols in the aqueous solutions bathing these membranes produced reversible changes in the ionic permeability, but not the osomotic permeability. Heptanol (8 mM), for example, caused the membrane resistance (R(m)) to decrease from >10(8) to about 10(5) ohm-cm(2) and caused a...
متن کاملWater Permeability of Thin Lipid Membranes
The osmotic permeability coefficient, P(f), and the tagged water permeability coefficient, P(d), were determined for thin (<100 A) lipid membranes formed from ox brain lipids plus DL-alpha-tocopherol; their value of approximately 1 x 10(-3) cm/sec is within the range reported for plasma membranes. It was established that P(f) = P(d). Other reports that P(f) > P(d) can be attributed to the prese...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Permeability of Biological Membranes
The transport equation describing the flow of solute across a membrane has been modified on the basis of theoretical studies calculating the drag of a sphere moving in a viscous liquid undergoing Poiseuille flow inside a cylinder. It is shown that different frictional resistance terms should be introduced to calculate the contributions of diffusion and convection. New sieving equations are deri...
متن کاملLipid composition, physical state, and lipid peroxidation of tumor membranes.
Studies were carried out on microsomes isolated from the highly differentiated (slow-growing) Morris hepatoma 9618A, on microsomes and plasma membranes from the poorly differentiated (fast-growing) Morris hepatoma 3924A, and rat liver used as control. The lipid composition (phospholipid and cholesterol content, degree of fatty acid unsaturation) and peroxidation of such membranes has been corre...
