Abstract
The osmotic pressure of proteoglycans extracted from human hip, knee and intervertebral disc cartilage and from bovine nasal cartilage, and of chondroitin sulphate was measured by equilibrium dialysis against solutions of polyethylene glycol in 0.15MThis publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
