THE CELL SAP OF HYDRODICTYON

Analysis of the cell sap of Hydrodictyon patenaeforme Pocock, from California indicates the usual marked accumulation of potassium, which is 4000 times as concentrated as in the surrounding pond water. Small amounts of sodium and calcium were found. Chloride makes up about three-fourths of the anion...

description Analysis of the cell sap of Hydrodictyon patenaeforme Pocock, from California indicates the usual marked accumulation of potassium, which is 4000 times as concentrated as in the surrounding pond water. Small amounts of sodium and calcium were found. Chloride makes up about three-fourths of the anions, with a very high sulfate, and much lower bicarbonate concentration accounting for most of the remainder. Electrical conductivity and osmotic studies indicate that the analyzed elements are ionized, and account for most of the sap's osmotic pressure. pH is 5.5 to 6.0. The analytical procedure was designed to determine as many of the cations as possible on one small sample. Hydrodictyon is a large multinucleate cell belonging to an order (Chlorococcales) new to permeability and accumulation studies.
