| osmosis |
The passage of a liquid from a weak solution to a more concentrated solution across a semiperm- eable membrane that allows passage of the solvent (water) but not the dissolved solids.

| osmolality |
the osmotic (pressure of which water is drawn through a semipermeable membrane) pressure of a substance. ie the property that liquids have to equalise concentrations. The patented addition of salt to the LoFric catheter coating is unique. It ensures balanced osmolality and so optimises both water binding and water retaining properties. This considerably reduces the risk of the catheter sticking and causing trauma to the delicate structures of the urethra. ...
