Abstract

Flow equations are developed using Laplace transform theory to describe the diffusion of 22Na+ through a composite system consisting of a protein solution and a phospholipid sol with a membrane at the interface. An approximation, valid at long times (t > 1.5 × 105 s), is then introduced enabling calculation of an unambiguous limiting value for the permeability coefficient of the membrane.
