Zusammenfassung

Die morphologische Beobachtung von getrennten cytoplasmatischen Phasen in geschlossenen Membranen führt zur Annahme von Membranpotentialen innerhalb der Zelle. Schreibt man den Membranen des endoplasmatischen Reticulums die Eigenschaften der Plasmamembran zu, so leiten sie die Erregung ins Zellinnere und dienen als Potentialspeicher.
