title: Improvements in the equation for calculating the contribution to osmotic potential of the separate solutes of water solutions.
abstract: A minor conceptual improvement, the elimination of an approximation and its revision in relativistic terms, has resulted in a twofold increase in the predictability of the equation for calculating the contribution to osmotic potential of the separate solutes of water solutions. The molecular model inherent to its formulation would provide unifying principles for visualizing water movements associated with solute concentration gradients in tissues.
