The information on how hydrogen
diffuses in metals is usually obtained from electrochemical measurements of the rate of hydrogen permeation
through a sample being usually a
membrane separating two independent electrolytic
cells.
This wasn't as fast as the researchers would have liked, but during these studies, they discovered that when a
cell is squeezed
through a narrow tube, small holes open in the
cell membrane, allowing nearby molecules to
diffuse into the
cell.
As blood glucose levels increase, glucose also increases within the aqueous humor, glucose readily
diffuses across the lens capsule, an aldose reductase pathway converts glucose to sorbitol, sorbitol accumulates within the lens as it can not
diffuse through lens
cell membranes, the osmotic gradient increases, water enters the lens and irreversibly changes the lens structure via lens fiber swelling and rupture, vacuole formation, and clinically evident cataract.
In contrast whenever surrounding waters experience a lower pH, it makes CO2 more available so that the energy expenditures drop because CO2 freely
diffuses into
cells and
through membranes.
However bicarbonate ions can not simply
diffuse into a
cell or pass
through internal
membranes.
