  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-008677",
  "term": "Permselectivity",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The property of a membrane or material that allows certain species to pass through more readily than others. This differential transport is based on factors such as size, charge, or chemical affinity. Ion-exchange membranes exhibit permselectivity towards ions of a specific charge, for example, cations over anions.",
