摘要: In a companion paper, we demonstrated that dynamic range limitations can confound measurement of the osmotically inactive volume using electrical sensing zone instruments (e.g., Coulter counters), and presented an improved parameter estimation method in which lognormal function was fit to cell distribution allow extrapolation beyond bounds data. Presently, have investigated effect on membrane water permeability (L(p)), adapted for L(p) from transient An alternative strategy (the limit adjustment method, measured isotonic is used generate model predictions curve fitting, are adjusted such not required) also developed. The performance these new algorithms compared conventional method. best-fit values vitro experiments with mouse insulinoma (MIN6) cells differed significantly different techniques (p<0.001). Using silico experiments, shown be most accurate (relative error 0.4+/-3.2%), whereas underestimated by 19+/-2% MIN6 cells. Parametric analysis revealed associated sensitive width distribution. Our initial implementation yielded significant errors, accuracy this algorithm after including normalization scheme.
