Transport Equations and Criteria for Active Transport [PDF]
American Zoologist, 1970 The relation between driving forces and the flux of solutes that would be expected in a passive system is derived. This relation is a differential equation and different solutions are obtained which apply to different experimental conditions. Solutions are given for the cases of pure convective flow, diffusion, electrophoretic mobility, balance between
