Membrane Permeability

Membrane Permeability is the intrinsic property of biological and synthetic membranes that determines the rate and selectivity with which solutes, ions, and molecules traverse the membrane barrier, distinguishing it from general membrane structure or transport mechanisms by quantifying the ease of molecular diffusion across the lipid bilayer or membrane-bound channels.
