We give an explicit formula for the membrane potential of cells in terms of the intracellular and extracellular ionic concentrations, and derive equations for the ionic currents that flow through channels, exchangers and electrogenic pumps.…
We introduce the Poisson-Boltzmann cell model for spherical colloidal particles with a heterogeneous surface charge distribution. This model is obtained by generalizing existing cell models for mixtures of homogeneously charged colloidal…
The Poisson-Boltzmann equation is a widely used model to study the electrostatics in molecular solvation. Its numerical solution using a boundary integral formulation requires a mesh on the molecular surface only, yielding accurate…
This paper is an introduction to the membrane potential equation for neurons. Its properties are described, as well as sample applications. Networks of these equations can be used for modeling neuronal systems, which also process images and…
We present theoretical work in which the degree of electrostatic coupling across a charged lipid bilayer in aqueous solution is analyzed on the basis of nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann theory. In particular, we consider the electrostatic…
We study theoretically the osmotic pressure of a suspension of charged objects (e.g., colloids, polyelectrolytes, clay platelets, etc.) dialyzed against an electrolyte solution using the cell model and linear Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) theory.…
The aim of this article is to analyze numerical schemes using two-layer neural networks with infinite width for the resolution of the high-dimensional Poisson-Neumann partial differential equations (PDEs) with Neumann boundary conditions.…
A cell membrane can be simply regarded as composite material consisting of lipid bilayer, membrane cytoskeleton beneath lipid bilayer, and proteins embedded in lipid bilayer and linked with membrane cytoskeleton if one only concerns its…

Trans-membrane gradients and fluxes of cations (H+, Na+, K+, etc.) were deemed to be the rationale of electrical activities of aerobic cells/organelles, as per classical perceptions. Murburn concept (an umbrella of theorization based in…
In this paper the problem of surface charge of the lipid membrane immersed in the physiological solution is considered. It is shown that both side of the bilayer phospholipid membrane surface are negatively charged. A self-consistent model…
Modern physics makes wide use of the equation for which only a potential solution is sought. The probability that this equation has a nonpotential solution is omitted from consideration automatically without any explanation. In this paper,…
