Diffusion in immobilized-cell gels.
The relationship between the diffusion coefficient, the effective diffusion coefficient and the partition coefficient for a solute in a cell-containing gel is discussed. The use of correlation equations that are based on some kind of physical model is recommended when the effect of cell concentration on diffusion is interpreted.
