ABSTRACT:
This invention pertains to a method of dynamically controlling the transport of a molecule across a polyelectrolyte membrane whereby chemical modulation of the electrostatic swelling forces in the polyelectrolyte membrane results in large changes in permeability and selectivity and a transmembrane electric field having electroosmotic, electrophoretic and electrostatic effects combine to allow the selective transport of the molecule across the membrane.
