Facilitated transport of amino acids by fixed-site jumping

Abstract

Amino acids are transported with high fluxes through plasticized cellulose triacetate membranes containing large amounts of quaternary tetraalkylammonium salts; similar results are obtained using analogous polymer-supported liquid membranes.
