Experiments giving evidence of active Na and Cl ion fluxes across large canine blood vessel walls (aorta, vena cava) in vitro have been presented. The information has been obtained using ion tracer techniques after Ussing and with diffusion cells of the Hogben type. The available data suggest that the membranes are satisfactorily oxygenated by the bathing solutions saturated with oxygen at atmo...

The results of diffusion and electrophoretic NMR (eNMR) measurements are reported for a series of tetramethylammonium (TMA) electrolytes (with sulphate, fluoride, acetate, chloride, bromide, nitrate, iodide and perchlorate as anions) in deuterated solvents such as water, dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile, methanol and ethanol. In addition, similar data are presented for aqueous solutions ...

In this research, the effect of the cement, sand, and pumice mixture on the durability of lightweight concrete is investigated. The intention of this paper is to replace a certain amount of the pumice percentage as an alternative option of the cement and pumice sand aggregate with conventional sand components. The experimental results include compressive strength, ion-chloride emission factor (...

Physiol. 227(2) : 453-459. 1974.-T b 1 u u es were dissected from rabbit kidneys and perfused in vitro. In cortical collecting tubules the transepithelial electrical potential difference (PD) was 35 mV (lumen negative). There was net active sodium reabsorption from the lumen and ne...

A description for the ligand function of tetrathiocyanatozincate selective electrode, has been proposed, using a multi-species approach model. This model takes into account simultaneous phase-boundary, diffusion-controlled, processes ion exchange between tetrathiocyanatozincate, thyocyanate and foreign ions unable to form zinc complexes, as well distribution neutral complex phases, partial deco...

1. By the use of the silver-silver chloride electrode, measurements have been made of the chloride ion concentrations of 1 per cent solutions of five proteins, containing from 0.001 N to 0.1 N hydrochloric acid. The hydrogen ion concentrations of the same solutions have been measured by the use of the hydrogen electrode. 2. The measurements indicate that the chlorides of gelatin, egg albumin, c...

From the data given above the following explanation of the effects of continued loss of the external secretion of the pancreas may be offered. The underlying event is a steadily increasing deficit of sodium and of chloride ion due to the large requirement for these electrolytes in the construction of pancreatic juice. In consequence there is continued loss of water, chiefly from the body fluids...

1. Calculations from the Fick diffusion law are shown to predict that membrane equilibria should be established during the course of ultrafiltration. 2. It is shown that the chloride ion is more concentrated and the sodium ion less concentrated in the ultrafiltrate than in the plasma from which the ultrafiltrate was derived. 3. It has been found that by increasing the base bound by protein thro...

Pancreatic juice contains fixed base at approximately the concentration found in the blood plasma. Chloride ion is present in concentrations varying from one-fourth to one-half the fixed base value and the remainder of the acid equivalence is composed of bicarbonate ion. Fixed base being a nearly stationary factor, variation of bicarbonate and thereby of alkalinity is referable to change in the...
