Yes, condensation NOT buffering intracellular osmolarity is obvious in experiments with giant vesicles #artificialcells. See e.g. pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.102… where changes in osmolarity outside a vesicle triggers condensation inside simply because the membrane is permeable to water.
Macromolecular condensation is unlikely to buffer intracellular osmolality

It was a great pleasure visiting @GAnderluh @kemijski, having such great discussions and being awarded he honorary lectureship.
Starting a Pregl lecture @kemijski by Rumiana Dimova @DimovaLab, Fantastic images of giant unilamellar vesicles and a lot of very useful insights into physics of these large membraneous structures.
