Abstract
An integral representation for the membrane admittance in terms of its known current response to a voltage step function is presented. It is demonstrated that the frequency-dependent terms in the contribution to the membrane admittance by the ion-selective conductance of the nerve membrane are proportional to the static conductances. The additional information contained in the real and imaginary parts of the membrane admittance should allow the parameters of the ion conductance to be determined. Eventually, these measurements should also give information about the electric dipole displacement currents of the conductance systems themselves, and about the metabolically supported active ion transport currents that maintain the ion concentration gradients.
