Finally, the transapical voltage did not significantly respond to luminal pH changes induced either by perfusion with pH 10 or by stopping the luminal perfusion with unbuffered...

...H. Onken; S. B. Moffett; D. F. Moffett SUMMARY The lumen-negative transepithelial voltage ( V te ) of the isolated and perfused anterior stomach of mosquito larvae ( Aedes aegypti ) was studied with a `semi-open' preparation in which one end of the gut was ligated onto a perfusion pipette...
