Abstract
THE Einstein equation E = E0(1 + 2.5 V) relating the viscosity E of a suspension of solid spheres and E0 the viscosity of the dispersion medium, V being the volume in parts of a cubic centimetre occupied by the dispersed solid, has been used as a basis for determining the molecular structure of proteins and other colloidal substances1.
