Effects of Charge on Osmotic Reflection Coefficients of Macromolecules in Fibrous Membranes

A model based on continuum hydrodynamics and electrostatics was developed to predict the combined effects of molecular charge and size on the osmotic reflection coefficient (σ[subscript o]) of a macromolecule in a fibrous membrane, such as a biological hydrogel. The macromolecule was represented as...
