What is mean by PBM in mass transfer?

It is the log mean value of the inert B in counterdiffusion usually used to find a flux. P = pA1 + pB1 = pA2 + pB2 thus, pB1 = P - pA1, and pB2 = P - pA2, so: pBM = [pB2 - pB1]/ln(pB2/pB1) = [pA1 - pA2]/ln[(P-pA2)/(P-pA1)] happy engineering :)

How would you change the pA2 for a drug-receptor pair?

The only way to change the pA2 would be to alter the nature of the receptor, because the pA2 is essentially a measurement of the affinity of the antagonist drug for the receptor. So, in order to change this value, one would need to change the receptor in a way that changes the binding affinity of the drug.
