Abstract
Electric phenomena, such as the directed (vectorial) transport of charges across biological membranes, play an important role in a number of biological processes, e.g. the ion transport through hydrophilic pathways (called channels or pores) is the molecular mechanism responsible for the nerve excitation phenomena. Photosynthesis, the subject of the contribution of H.T. Witt, is also connected with the vectorial transfer of charges across the membranes.
