The results are applied to study the diffusive and convective transport of spherical solutes across the vascular endothelial surface glycocalyx, based on the quasi-periodic ultrastructural model. The obtained values of diffusive permeability and reflection coefficient of the solutes show a reasonable agreement with experimental observations, and conform to the hypothesis that the endothelial surface glycocalyx forms the primary size selective structure to solutes in microvascular permeability.}, pages = {309--321}, title = {Transport of spheres suspended in the fluid flowing between hexagonally arranged cylinders}, volume = {551}, year = {2006} }
