** The barrier has a net negative charge thanks to cells in the membrane having a negatively charged surface and a basal lamina with negatively charged glycoproteins.
** The barrier has a net negative charge thanks to cells in the membrane having a negatively charged surface and a basal lamina with negatively charged glycoproteins.
** Therefore negatively charged molecules are filtered less than positive or neutral ones
** Therefore negatively charged molecules are filtered less than positive or neutral ones
** Proteins are negatively charged this and their size prevents their filtration
** Proteins are negatively charged. This and their size prevents their filtration
* Protein binding
* Protein binding
** Drugs, ions or small molecules which are bound to protein are not filtered
** Drugs, ions or small molecules which are bound to protein are not filtered
