FOUR FIGURES
In an attempt to discover whether the erythrocyte maintains its high concentration of potassium by a metabolic process Davson and Danielli ('38) studied the effects of a number of nietabolic poisons on the potassium contents of both nucleated and non-nucleated erythrocytes, and concluded from the absence of significant losses of potassium in the presence of these poisons that the erythrocyte maintained its high potassium concentration in virtue of a complete impermeability to this

The present investigation is a continuation of the study of the relationship between cell permeability and metabolism (see Hunter, '47 for a more detailed discussion). It is felt
