Pertaining to, or having the property of, osmose; as, osmotic force.
This a saline solution with the concentration of 0,9 g NaCl/100 mL distilled water. This is a isotonic solution; the meaning is that the osmotic pressure of the this solution is equal to the osmotic pressure of the blood serum.
Iso-osmotic concentration refers to a solution that has the same osmotic pressure as another solution. To determine iso-osmotic concentration, you can use colligative properties such as freezing point depression or osmotic pressure measurements. By comparing these values between solutions, you can identify when two solutions have equal osmotic pressure and thus have iso-osmotic concentration.
The osmotic coefficient of sodium chloride is 0,93.
In a solution with a difference in osmotic pressure, water moves from an area of low osmotic pressure to an area of high osmotic pressure.
An osmotic conformer is an organism that maintains its internal osmotic pressure to match its external environment. This allows the organism to prevent excessive water loss or gain in response to changes in the salinity of its surroundings. Osmotic conformers are typically found in environments with stable osmotic conditions.
An isotonic solution is one where osmotic pressures are equal -one common application is in microbiology when the concentration of a certain chemical is the same inside the cell as outside the cell, meaning an osmotic equilibrium has been reached across that cell membrane.
Cytolysis or Osmotic-lysis
TDS increases the osmotic pressure. From the formula, Osmotic pressure = CRT. C as the concentration in mol / L; R = gas constant; T = temperature. The higher the concentration of the solids, the higher is its osmotic pressure.
What is osmotic potential?Osmotic potential is defined as the ability of a solution to suck water in if it was separated from another solution by a semi-permeable (meaning water gets through, but not the solution) membrane. This means that if you have pure water next to salt water, separated by such a membrane, the pure water would run over to the saltwater, while the water in the saltwater would stay where it is. Water, then, always moves towards a higher concentration, from high pressure to low pressure. This is also how trees get water from the roots up to the canopy, as they don't have beating heart like we do. The plants use their osmotic potential to transport water through the cells from the bottom (roots) where the osmotic pressure is high, to the top (canopy) where the osmotic pressure is low. As the water is transported up, the osmotic pressure in the roots sinks, allowing more water to run in from the soil.
Osmotic stabilizers are substances that help maintain the osmotic balance in cells by regulating the movement of water and ions in and out of the cell. They prevent excessive swelling or shrinking of cells due to changes in osmotic pressure, helping to maintain cellular integrity and function. Examples of osmotic stabilizers include sugars like glucose and sorbitol.
The osmotic pressure is 24,44 at.
The component of plasma that maintains the osmotic pressure of blood is protein. The protein albumin and others maintain osmotic pressure in blood.
