ion pump (also referred to as a sputter ion pump) is a type of vacuum pump which operates by sputtering a metal getter. Under ideal conditions, ion pumps...

different types of transporters including pumps, uniporters, antiporters, and symporters. Active transporters or ion pumps are transporters that convert energy...

the pump uses, three sodium ions are exported and two potassium ions are imported. Thus, there is a net export of a single positive charge per pump cycle...

Entrapment pumps capture gases in a solid or adsorbed state; this includes cryopumps, getters, and ion pumps. Positive displacement pumps are the most...

barrier to the movement of ions. Transmembrane proteins, also known as ion transporter or ion pump proteins, actively push ions across the membrane and establish...

shown that in some ion transporters, it is not always clear whether it functions as a channel or a pump. Diseases involving ion pumps can produce symptoms...

from their breasts Heat pump, device that transfers heat energy from a source of heat to a heat sink Ion pump (biology), or ion transporter, transmembrane...

potential within the cell involves the utilization of ion channels, ion pumps, and voltage-gated ion channels by the cell. However, the process of generating...

(typically turbomolecular pumps and valves) and damage them. Many chambers containing TSPs also have an ion pump. Often the ion pump provides a good location...

sodium–potassium pump, living human cells pump three sodium ions out of the cell in exchange for two potassium ions pumped in; comparing ion concentrations...
