Abstract
An excised clam mantle develops a potential difference, shell side positive, when both surfaces are bathed by tap water or physiological saline solution. The magnitude and sign of the potential are sensitive to the calcium concentration in the bath solution. Bubbling carbon dioxide through the solution bathing the shell side increased the potential.Entities:
