Transport rate equation

The transport rate equation describes how quickly molecules move across a barrier, such as a cell membrane. It relates the amount of substance passing through to factors like concentration differences, how easily the molecule can cross, and the properties of the membrane. Essentially, it quantifies the flow based on the driving force (concentration difference) and the ease of transport (permeability). This equation helps scientists understand processes like nutrient absorption, drug delivery, and waste elimination in biological systems, providing a mathematical way to predict and analyze molecular movement.
