In order to determine of the osmotic-diffusive properties of membranous dressing Bioprocess, which is a microfibrous network of homogeneous cellulose produced in biosynthesis by Acetobacter, the hydraulic permeability (Lp), reflection (sigma) and diffusive permeability (omega) coefficients were measured. The values of these coefficients showed that this membrane possess a low selectivity. This amount it easy permeable for solvent (water) as well as for solutions (aqueous solutions of glucose, sucrose, ethanol, NaCl or KCl). Thus, it attend a demands make for polymeric materials used in therapy of scald and ulceration.
