Fluxes of a Nonelectrolyte and Compartmentation in Cells of Carrot Root Tissue

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Permeation of thiourea into cells of carrot (Daucus carota L.) storage root discs was found to be governed by its concentration gradient only. The analysis of the course of thiourea efflux from preloaded discs shows two distinct exponential curves, apart from an initial very fast component. Reasons are given for relating the first exponential part of the curve to efflux from the cytoplasm and the second exponential part to efflux from the vacuole.
