Holoaden Holoaden Holoaden (common name: highland frogs) is a small genus of craugastorid frogs endemic to southeastern Brazil. "Holoaden" is the type genus of subfamily Holoadeninae that was erected in 2008 and placed in family Strabomantidae, erected at the same time. Before that, it was in Brachycephalidae. However, later research has led the whole Strabomantidae, Holoadeninae included, to become included in Craugastoridae. This arrangement is not followed by all, and the AmphibiaWeb still keeps Holoadeninae, and consequently "Holoaden", in Strabomantidae. "Holoaden" grow to snout–vent length at most. Head is narrower than the body. Differentiated tympanic membrane and tympanic annulus are absent.
Membrane gas separation when the pores in the polymer membrane appear and disappear faster relative to the movement of the particles. In a typical membrane system the incoming feed stream is separated into two components: permeant and retentate. Permeant is the gas that travels across the membrane and the retentate is what is left of the feed. On both sides of the membrane, a gradient of chemical potential is maintained by a pressure difference which is the driving force for the gas molecules to pass through. The ease of transport of each species is quantified by the permeability, P. With the assumptions of
