The fluid can be driven by an external electric field or a pressure gradient leading, respectively, to
electro-osmotic flow (EOF) and pressure-driven flow.
Other studies have investigated the relationship between hydraulic permeability and
electro-osmotic permeability.

Proof of
electro-osmotic drug delivery: a prejudiced clinical trial, delivering from mouth to nose.
They review classical equilibrium electrokinetic theories, along with more recent theoretical developments; discuss
electro-osmotic transport and its application to the design of DC electrokinetic pumps; and examine electrophoresis and its applications.
