Sodium chloride reflection coefficient in rabbit gall bladder.
By means of the Kedem-Katchalsky thermodynamic description of active transport, a relationship has been derived between the apparent reflection coefficient and the Staverman reflection coefficient for passive transport of a solute which is both actively and passively transported. The relationship between volumetric flow and its driving forces, containing the Staverman reflection coefficient, was tested for sodium chloride in rabbit gall bladder and the reflection coefficient was evaluated.
