A Visking tube, also known as dialysis tubing, is a semi-permeable membrane often used in experiments to demonstrate osmosis and diffusion. For example, in a classroom setting, a Visking tube can be filled with a sugar solution and submerged in plain water. Over time, water molecules will move into the tube through the membrane, causing the sugar solution to become more dilute and illustrating the principles of osmosis. This setup effectively shows how substances can move across selectively permeable membranes.
Here are some examples of wedges: axe bicycle stem (the wedge is inside the steerer tube to hold the handlebars in position) chisel door stop engine valves (they are flanged to allow for a good seal)

fine glucose molecules can pass through the wall of the visking tube.
can someone tell me what is good about visking tube and whats bad about it asap because i need to give my homework by tmor and my homework relates 2 that
visking tubing
Cannot pass through visking tubing: sugar starch lactose sucrose Can pass through visking tubing: Iodine Glucose Maltose
If you add saliva inside a Visking tube, the enzymes in the saliva will begin to break down larger molecules present in the solution into smaller molecules. These smaller molecules will be able to pass through the selectively permeable membrane of the Visking tube, while larger molecules will be left behind, resulting in a process similar to digestion.
The water in a Visking tube represents the bloodstream in the body. The selective permeability of the Visking membrane simulates the function of capillaries in the body, allowing only certain molecules to pass through, mimicking the exchange of substances between the blood and tissues.
it is different because widts of the tube and intestine may vary
the visking tubing is useless and we need an alternative. can u helpful human beings help please? we are in the middle of a chaotic crisis trying to find the reason for osmosis. please help you kind human beings :) i hate you bye -from the scientists of Mars :
A Visking tube works through the principle of osmosis, where solutes move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. In the tube, the membrane allows water to pass through while retaining larger solutes inside, facilitating the separation of molecules based on their size.
You may be thinking of the blood capillaries. Like visking tubing, their walls are able to let substances diffuse in and out. This is also true of the cell membranes. However both of these are much more permeable than visking tubing. The kidney contains semi-permeable membranes which allow urea to pass through but not other substances such as proteins.
Put a sucrose solution into the visking tube and fasten the ends, then place it in water (at different temperatures). The varying temperatures would quicken or slow the rate of diffusion (osmosis). Then using iodine, you put some in the water that the visking tube was in and if it turns dark blue/black the more sucrose has diffused. This can be put into a calorimeter to check the intensity for different temps. You should find that the higher the temp. the higher the rate of diffusion (because particles are excited and have more kinetic energy and move more). Hope this helps =) Sana (17 yrs)
Visking tubing is a type of semi-permeable membrane tubing used in dialysis and other separation techniques. It is made from cellulose or other synthetic materials and is used to separate molecules based on their size and charge. The tubing allows small molecules to pass through while retaining larger molecules, making it useful for purification and concentration of biological samples.
