Since the gap capacitance is inversely proportional to the gap distance d, as d decreases, the prepulse increases.
The primary difference between those who went on to recurrent hypertensive disease of pregnancy was in the interpregnancy plasma volume and the inter-pregnancy venous capacitance.
These probably reflected the charging and discharging of the large membrane capacitance of these cells which could not be completely compensated for.
The amount of charge movement associated with this capacitance is a linear function of the voltage change, over a wide range of voltages.
A further point can be made on the use of capacitance probes, the probe used had a circular plate and was thus omni-directional.
The current densities were obtained by dividing the current by capacitance.
The solid line shows the average capacitance level.
Formation of the bilayer was visualized on an oscilloscope screen as an increase of membrane capacitance, while applying a triangular voltage wave under voltage clamp.
