Summary: | This monograph on the water permeability of lipid bilayers and cell membranes provides a theoretical framework for treating water movement accross membranes. Includes a review of the results of water permeability measurements on artificial lipid bilayer membranes. Discusses permeability data on biological membranes. Written for both the general reader--physiologist, biophysicist, student, or chemist--and the specialist actively engaged in research, so material is neither too obscure or too trivial. Strives to give the reader real physical insight into the mechanism of water transport through membranes. |
