| Method |
"Bimolecular lipid membranes have been prepared from total phospholipid
extracts of human red cells. The electrical properties and water permeability of these
membranes were similar to values reported earlier for other bilayer membranes...Methods for the determination of permeability coefficients (k) of radioactive
solutes were developed with the use of 3HHO as the penetrating species." |
| Comments |
"The permeability coefficient of 3HHO k[3HHO] was 3.2X10^-4±0.1X10^-4cm/sec (14 membranes) in close agreement with the values reported by others [refs 8,10,16]. In
these experiments there was no provision for stirring the fluid in the chambers beyond initial mixing and the currents generated in the recipient chamber by the
flow of perfusate. Donor chamber concentrations of 3HHO were usually about
2X10^6 counts/min per ml." |
