The whole cell water (70–80% of the total mass), statistically, is distributed into only two to three hydration layers around macromolecules. The size of a water molecule being 0.3 nm, the film of interfacial water between cell macromolecules is probably not very different from 1.2 nm (2 × 0.3 + 2 × 0.3 nm)
