Cation antiports of animal plasma membranes.
Both organic and inorganic solutes can be transported across biological membranes against their electrochemical gradient, by coupling to the downhill movement of another species. In animal cells, the underlying mechanism most often involves symport (cotransport) or antiport (countertransport) with either sodium or hydrogen ions. The energy invested in the uphill translocation of solutes is ulti...
متن کاملMembranes of Animal Cells
Turnover studies of the surface membrane and of cell particulate matter of L cells in tissue culture in logarithmic and plateau phase of growth have been made. The rate of incorporation of isotope into these fractions and the rate of fall of specific activities of labeled L-cell fractions have been observed. The following interpretation of the data appears most likely although other interpretat...
متن کاملEnhancing Electrochemical Performance of Heterogeneous Cation Exchange Membranes by Using Super Activated Carbon Nanoparticles
Polyvinylchloride (PVC) based heterogeneous cation exchange membranes were prepared by the solution casting technique. The effect of super activated carbon nanoparticles concentration as filler additive in membrane matrix on ionic transfer behaviors of the membrane was studied. SOM images showed uniform particles distribution and relatively uniform surfaces for the membranes. The membrane water...
متن کاملExtrinsic Cation Selectivity of 2D Membranes
From a systematic study of the concentration driven diffusion of positive and negative ions across porous 2D membranes of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), we prove their cation selectivity. Using the current-voltage characteristics of graphene and h-BN monolayers separating reservoirs of different salt concentrations, we calculate the reversal potential as a measure of selectivity. ...
متن کاملStudy the Transport Properties of Anion and Cation Exchange Membranes toward Various Ions Using Chronopotentiometry
The transport properties of various anion and cation exchange membranes were studied in different electrolyte solutions using chronopotentiometry technique to get insight about the influence of the counter ion on the transport properties of the membranes. The investigated samples include heterogeneous ion exchange membranes varying in the functionality of fixed charged gro...
