Summary Introduction
To review:
The following:
Nature and significance of hypotonic, isotonic, and hypertonic solutions
Use of 5 percent dextrose, and normal saline as intravenous infusion.
Introduction:
Osmosis is a net movement or passage of water across the membrane. For osmosis to occur, the membrane is usually a selectively permeable membrane. Osmosis can occur when there is a difference in the concentration of solute on both the sides of a selectively permeable membrane. The three types of osmotic solutions are isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic.

Transport of biomolecules to tissues takes place through capillary walls by both convection and diffusion. Consider an endothelium in which the gaps between the cells are characterized by the following dimensions: L=1 µm long, h=200 nm high, and W=10 nm in width (the last dimension is the distance between the two cells). The fluid is at 37degC and has the same properties as physiologic saline. Let the average pressure in the capillary be 45 mm Hg and let the pressure in the tissue be 0 mm Hg (ignore osmotic effects). Consider a small solute that has a diffusion coefficient of 1x10-5 cm2/s. Does this solute pass across the endothelium by diffusion or is it primarily carried by flow?
