"In these titrations, the
amount of cytoplasmic water varies linearly with the
reciprocal of external osmolality the residual amount of
cytoplasmic water not removed by osmotic stress (as
1/Osmcx?0) is 0.4 µl/mg cell dry weight, independent
of osmolality from 0.03 Osm to at least 1 Osm (Fig. 2)." |
