Abstract
Okadaic acid, a macrocyclic polyether compound, was shown to mediate t he transfer of Na+, K+, Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions from aqueous solution to an organic phase, with a preference for Na+ ions. A kinetic study of the transport of these ions across a liquid membrane showed that the Naion was more rapidly transported than the other ions and that the Naion flux was dependent on the okadaic acid concentration.
