Abstract
The passage of plasma proteins into the brain is pertinent to the question of resolution of vasogenic brain edema, as the proteins give rise to the colloidosmotic pressure of brain interstitial fluid, one of the parameters in the Starling relation of transcapillary fluid exchange [6].
The investigation reported in this paper was supported by the Netherlands Organization for the Advancement of Pure Research.
