Cells of Nitella have been studied which behave differently from those described in earlier papers. They show unexpectedly large changes in P.D. with certain concentrations of KCl. This is due to the production of action currents (these are recorded at the spot where KCl is applied).
A method is given for the separate evaluation of changes of P.D. due to partition coefficients and those due to mobilities.
A new amplifier and an improved flowing contact are described.
