  • (20) The unidirectional Cl- fluxes may have significant contributions from both the transcellular and paracellular pathways, with the direction of departure from predicted values being consistent with the presence of Cl- exchange diffusion.

Similar


Definition:

  • (a.) Exactly corresponding; resembling in all respects; precisely like.
  • (a.) Nearly corresponding; resembling in many respects; somewhat like; having a general likeness.
  • (a.) Homogenous; uniform.
  • (n.) That which is similar to, or resembles, something else, as in quality, form, etc.
