NMR and ion selective electrode studies of hydraphile channels correlate with biological activity in E. coli and B. subtilis

Abstract

Previous sodium ion transport results obtained by NMR methods are compared with those obtained by a new ISE technique and are found to correlate well with each other and with the biological activity against E. coli and B. subtilis.
