Potassium, sodium and Chloride in the protoplasm of characeae

Using vacuolar perfusion, which enabled us to replace the cell sap with a solution containing no k+, Na+ and Cl−, the concentrations of these ions in the protoplasm of three species of fresh water Characeae were determined. They were respectively, 78, 2 and 27 mM in Nitella flexilis , 101, 9 and 31...
