Example sentences for: tetraethylammonium

How can you use “tetraethylammonium” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • TEA Tetraethylammonium (chloride salt)

  • Tetraethylammonium is known as a pore-occluding blocker of voltage-gated potassium channels [ 1 ] , but it also blocks other cationic channels such as calcium-dependent K +channels [ 2 3 ] and the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor [ 4 ] . TEA at 0.1 to 10 mM also inhibits osmotic water flux through human AQP1 channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes, decreasing the net swelling rate in hypotonic saline by 30-40% as compared to AQP1-expressing oocytes not treated with TEA [ 5 ] . This blocking effect on osmotic water flux was demonstrated to involve AQP1 channels specifically by using site-directed mutagenesis (tyrosine 186 to phenylalanine) to generate a Y186F AQP1 channel that is insensitive to block by TEA, but retains sensitivity to block by mercury.

  • In all recordings, the external (bath) solution contained (in mM): 145 tetraethylammonium (TEA) methanesulfonate (MS), 10 4-(2-Hydroxy ethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid (HEPES), 15 glucose, 10 CaCl 2 , and 300 nM tetrodotoxin, pH 7.4, osmolality ~320 mOsm kg -1.
