Ultrafiltration of Immune Serum Globulin and Human Serum Albumin: Regression Analysis Studies

Abstract
Experimental values for ultrafiltration fluxes at various bulk protein concentrations and bulk fluid velocities are presented for immune serum globulin (ISG) and human serum albumin (HSA) at neutral pH prepared from human serum plasma by Cohn's Cold Ethanol process. Protein concentration at the membrane surface and the exponent on the bulk fluid velocity are calculated from a concentration polarization model to be 19.14 g/100 ml and 0.67 for ISG; 23.85 g/100 ml and 0.61 for HSA.
