Charge properties and ion selectivity of the rectal intima of the desert locust
The rectal intima of the desert locust was found to possess fixed negative charges, rather than fixed neutral sites. It was suggested that the molecular species responsible for the negative sites might be acidic amino acids. The selective permeability of the intima as estimated from diffusion poten...
