Abstract
The mechanisms for the oscillation of membrane potential or membrane current accompanied by ion transport through a membrane were investigated with the aid of ion transfer voltammetry at an aqueous/organic or aqueous/membrane interface. The current or potential oscillation that occurs by applying constant membrane potential or current and the spontaneous oscillation of membrane potential without any motive force by outside circuit were examined. Both oscillatoos involves the ion transfer that causes the maximum current in voltammogram at an aqueous/membrane interface. The change of membrane potential during the oscillation was connected to the ion transfer potentials at two aqueous/membrane interfaces.
