Nevertheless, the coupling with thetransmembranepotentialis expected to be reasonably well-represented by a continuum dielectric approximation because it is essentially electrostatic in nature.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Electrical excitability intransmembranepotentialis a consequence of the processes controlling the transport of electrically charged species across the cell membrane.
From theCambridge English Corpus
Then, we review some basic concepts of membrane electrostatics, with a particular emphasis on the influence of thetransmembranepotential.
From theCambridge English Corpus
This treatment has the advantages of incorporating thetransmembranepotential, different salt concentrations on either side of the membrane, and ion-ion interactions.
From theCambridge English Corpus
In addition, thetransmembranepotentialdifference was not included in the simulation.

From theCambridge English Corpus
Thetransmembranepotentialis an important driving force governing the movement of charged species across the cell membrane.
From theCambridge English Corpus

From theCambridge English Corpus
However, this term could be refined to include effects from multiple ions, reaction field terms and a more accurate treatment of thetransmembranepotential(see below).
From theCambridge English Corpus
One purpose of this separation is to enable us to use a continuum electrostatic approximation to describe the influence of thetransmembranepotentialon the pore subsystem.
From theCambridge English Corpus
The suppression of activity did not require synaptic transmission, and block was accompanied by depolarization of thetransmembranepotentialand depression of sodium and calcium currents.
From theCambridge English Corpus

From
Wikipedia
Consequently, there is a difference in electric potentials between the cell interior and a fluid bulk, known as thetransmembranepotential.
From
Wikipedia
We wish to show that when the flux is zero, thetransmembranepotentialis not zero.
From
Wikipedia
As thetransmembranepotentialrises, the value of "m" increases, thus increasing the probability that the activation gate will be open.
