Summary Introduction

Introduction: Osmosis is a type of diffusion in which water, ions, or molecules pass freely from more concentrated areas to less concentrated areas through a semipermeable membrane. There are majorly three types of osmotic conditions, namely hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic solutions.

You are working with cells that have an internal solute concentration of 5mM solute. This solute is large and ionized. You place them in a medium that has a concentration of 7.7 mM solute. What will happen? a. The cells will swell initially, then return to their original size. b. The cells will shrink in size. c. I do not expect anything to happen. d. The cell will burst.
You are designing a medical device to collect Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA, MW = 180,000 g mol^-1), a tumor marker, from patients in order to create a personalized cancer vaccine. In this medical device, the cellular components of the blood are removed from the plasma. The plasma then flows into an extraction chamber. Within this chamber, the fluid flow divides into 48,000 10-cm long tubes with an inside diameter of 175 um. The surface of each tube is coated with a material that very rapidly adsorbs CEA. Plasma containing 6.1 ug m1^-1 of CEA flows into the chamber at 125 ml min^-1. Assume that the fluids are at body temperature (37°C). The viscosity and density of water at 37°C are 0.691 cP and 0.993 g/ cm^3, respectively. _what is the mass transfer coefficient (cm s^-1) for CEA inside the device ?
