Diffusion and Release of a Mobile Product in a Reactive Membrane System
نویسندگان
چکیده
When a polymer membrane containing an immobilized, reactive chemical is in contact with solution containing a reactive solute, the solute diffuses into the membrane and reacts with the immobilized chemical. As a result, the reactive solute and the immobilized chemical are consumed, and at the same time, mobile products may be produced within the membrane. The mobile products will diffuse out of the membrane under the driving force of the resulting concentration gradient. This process continues until all of the immobilized chemical is consumed. In this study, diffusion and release of a mobile product produced in a reactive membrane was investigated experimentally and theoretically.

Vitamin E (α-tocopherol) is a natural antioxidant very useful for preventing the harmful effects of UV sun rays as skin aging and cancers. In this study, different MLV formulations were made using egg lecithin and varying molar ratios of α-tocopherol and/or cholesterol, and their encapsulation efficiencies were determined. The best liposomal product was incorporated into a carbomer 980 gel. The...
