Membrane potential responses of paramecium caudatum to external Na+.

Zoological science - 1 Nov 2004

Oami Kazunori, Takahashi Mihoko

Abstract excerpt

The membrane potential responses of Paramecium caudatum to Na+ ions were examined to understand the mechanisms underlying the sensation of external inorganic ions in the ciliate by comparing the responses of the wild type and the behavioral mutant. Wild-type cells exhibited initial continuous backward swimming followed by repeated transient backward swimming in the Na+-containing test solution. A wild-type cell...
