Influence of glucose and urea on 125I transport across an anion exchange paper membrane

In order to study the influence of glucose and urea on the 125I transport across an anion exchange paper membrane, the transmembrane potential, the fluxes, and the concentrations of 125I, glucose and urea within the membrane were measured in the Na125I concentration-cell system containing glucose or urea. Glucose and urea increased the membrane/solution distribution of the iodide ion, but scarcely affected the diffusion process of iodide ion within the membrane.
