Abstract

In order to obtain a proper understanding of the transport of ions in membranes one must know the hydration energies of ions in water and the equivalent quantities arising from the electrostatic interaction of the ion with the membrane material. In this paper the effect of dielectric saturation on these quantities is discussed and a simple theoretical treatment of this phenomenon is proposed. The results are compared with values obtained from thermodynamic data.
