7Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
What did it happen?
8Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
The phenomenological explanation
Imaginary membrane of area A and length ?x
Js
9Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
10Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
Now let see another phenomenon How is the
solute movement across a biological membrane?
11Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
Water solute
Water solute

12Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
Suppose that both, water and solute can move
across the membrane
we will focus on the solute transport (Be
patient we will go to study water transport in
17 min)
13Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
Suppose that C1 gt C2
14Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws

C2
?x
15Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
Now, we will measure the transport of solute from
one side to another
16Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws

?x
17Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
Which is the highest? (Js1?2 or Js1?2)
(Remember, C1 gt C2)
18Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
C1
C2
Js1?2
Yeah!
Js1?2
?x
19Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
But what is the relation among Jss?
20Transport of water and solutes
Transport of non electrolytes Fick's laws
The beautiful expression
21Transport of water and solutes
The concept of permeability
But we must to know the length ?x of the membrane.
22Third week Bioenergetics
The concept of permeability
The researchers of physiology and biophysics
measure Js/A and ?C
23Transport of water and solutes
The concept of permeability
Then, to achieve an equality
24Transport of water and solutes
The concept of permeability
Therefore
25Transport of water and solutes
Do you remember an electrical circuit?
26Transport of water and solutes
Water solute
Water solute

27Transport of water and solutes
Suppose that water can move across the membrane
Suppose that solute can not move across the
membrane
we will focus on the water transport (great!)
28Transport of water and solutes
Suppose that C1 gt C2
29Transport of water and solutes

Let see
electrical force
44Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Nernst equation
The Flux
Then
Homogeneous concentration!
45Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Nernst equation
This is the Nernst-Planck equation
The Flux
Thanks to Einstein we know that
Then
46Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Nernst equation
In equilibrium
Then
Then
47Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Nernst equation
Then
But
The Nernst equation!
48Third week Bioenergetics
Transport of electrolytes Nernst equation
49Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Goldman equation
This is again the Nernst-Planck equation
Assuming
And
50Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Goldman equation
Then
Integrating
51Transport of water and solutes
Transport of electrolytes Goldman equation
But remember
Therefore
