The results demonstrate size-selective molecular sieving by the synovial extracellular matrix, equivalent to steric exclusion from cylindrical pores of radius 33-59 nm. The findings underpin the concentration polarization-outflow buffering theory and indicate that reduced HA chain length in arthritis exacerbates...
