Abstract:
The conductance measurement method of endothelial permeability has been established by the principle that there is direct ratio between conductance and filter area, and has been compared with the albumin filter method. The results show that there is close correlation between conductance and filter area, the conductance measurement can be used for the detection of the monolayer endothelial cells permeability. The combination of the conductance measurement and the albumin filter measurement method can accurately reflect the permeability change in severity and scope.
