Active Transport of Chloride by the Giant Neuron of the Aplysia Abdominal Ganglion
Internal chloride activity, ai Cl, and membrane potential, Em, were measured simultaneously in 120 R2 giant neurons of Aplysia californica. ai Cl was 37.0 ± 0.8 mM, Em was -49.3 ± 0.4 mv, and E Cl calculated using the Nernst equation was -56.2 ± 0.5 mv. Such values were maintained for as long as 6...
