Communications Chemistry, 2023 During the long-term storage of cells, it is necessary to inhibit ice crystal formation by adding cryoprotectants. Non-cell-permeable cryoprotectants have high osmotic pressure which dehydrates cells, indirectly suppressing intracellular ice crystal ...

Membrane Permeability Threshold for Osmotic Power Plant Efficiency
Journal of Contemporary Urban Affairs, 2017 In a context of ever-growing electricity consumption and need for less polluting sources of energy, salinity gradient power (SGP) based on osmosis is a promising technology. Salinity difference between two solutions separated by a semi-permeable membrane

The Balance of Fluid and Osmotic Pressures across Active Biological Membranes with Application to the Corneal Endothelium. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The movement of fluid and solutes across biological membranes facilitates the transport of nutrients for living organisms and maintains the fluid and osmotic pressures in biological systems. Understanding the pressure balances across membranes is crucial

Does Glycine Betaine and Salicylic Acid Ameliorate the Negative Effect of Drought on Wheat by Regulating Osmotic Adjustment through Solutes Accumulation? [PDF]
Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2013 A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the beneficial effect of foliar application of glycine betaine (10mM), grain presoaking in salicylic acid (0.05 M) and their interaction on drought tolerance of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L ...
