✦ Synopsis
We give parametric equations for Schoen's I-WP triply periodic embedded minimal surface in terms of the Gauss hypergeometric function. The equations lead to new exact formulae for the normalization factor, surface area and the normalized surfaceto-volume ratio, and enable a straightforward low-cost computation of the surface.

## Abstract To understand and calculate the interactions of a solute with a solvent, a good method of computing the molecular surface is needed. Three kinds of surfaces may be used: the van der Waals Surface, the Accessible Surface, and the Molecular Surface. The latter is redefined in this article
