| Method |
Extrapolation of the relationship between equilibrated cell volume and solution concentration Y=0.824X+0.178 to infinite osmolality suggests that the osmotically inactive cell volume (Vb) is 17.8% of the isotonic volume. Oocytes were incubated for 10 min at 38 degrees C in various hypo- or hypertonic solutions, and an isotonic control solution and then assessed for these two parameters |
| Comments |
Oocyte volume displayed a linear response to anisotonic solutions as expected |
