Table 8.

Effective diffusion coefficient values for proteins and dextrans in 100-kDa MWCO polyethersulfone membranes of CMA probes obtained by reanalyzing data from the literature. The calculations employed the radii values in Table 1 and the solute transport model of section 2 for the situation of no transmembrane convection.
