OSMOLALITY

Domain	Definition
Chemistry	A property of a solution which depends on the concentration of the solute per unit of solvent. Source: European Union. (references)
Health	The concentration of osmotically active particles in solution expressed in terms of osmoles of solute per kilogram of solvent. The osmolality is directly proportional to the colligative properties of solutions; osmotic pressure, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and vapour pressure lowering. (references)

Specialty Definition: Osmolality

Osmolality, in biology and chemistry, is a measure of moless of solute per kg of water. Osmolality increases with dehydration and decreases with overhydration. In normal people, increased osmolality in the blood will stimulate secretion of ADH (antidiuretic hormone). This will result in increased water reabsorption, more concentrated urine, and less concentrated plasma. A low serum osmolality will suppress the release of ADH, resulting in decreased water reabsorption and more concentrated plasma.
