Electrolyte is the medical term for a salt or ion in the blood or other bodily fluid that carries a charge. Skip to content. ... Sodium (Na+) Potassium (K+) Calcium (Ca2+) Magnesium (Mg2+) ...

Using the model K+ channel KcsA, we examined how intracellular Na+ and Li+ interact with the pore and the permeant ions using electrophysiology, molecular dynamics simulations and X-ray ...

Moreover, the aqua Na+ ion requires higher formation energy than aqua K+ ion in the hydrophobic nanochannels. As such, we find that the ion (K+ vs. Na+) selectivity of the (8, 8) CNT is ∼20× ...
