title: [Active transport of chloride across skin isolated from Rana esculenta].
abstract: The effect of SITS, ouabain and acetazolamide on potential difference (E) and short-circuit current (ccc) across isolated frog skin after Amiloride treatment have been investigated. It has been found that Amiloride (3.5 . 10(-5)M) reverses the E and ccc values. After Amiloride treatment, with the use of SITS (6 . 10(-4)M) positive values of E and ccc have been measured while Ouabain (10(-4)M) only slightly reduces the reversed E and ccc values. On the other hand the effect of Acetazolamide (6 . 10(-4)M) is additional to the effect of SITS. It is suggested that the frog skin possesses an active transport for Cl-, as demonstrated by the use of Amiloride, and that it is carried out by two distinct mechanism: the first SITS and Acetazolamide sensible, the second one sensible to Strofantine.
