Abstract A number of methods are described to facilitate the transport of monosaccharides, catecholamines, and amino acids through bulk liquid membranes, supported liquid membranes and plasticized cellulose triacetate membranes. Transport is mediated by carrier compounds, such as boronic acids, quaternary ammonium salts and crown ethers, that are dissolved within the lipophilic membranes. Two types of transport mechanisms are described, carrier diffusion and fixed-site jumping.
