Culture dishes were treated according to the described procedure for determination of Rh123 accumulation in SC rat hepatocytes (dishes were incubated for 30 min with 1 μM Rh123 in standard or Ca2+-free HBSS and subsequently rinsed four times with ice-cold standard HBSS; dishes were then incubated with 0.5% Triton X-100 to recover all residual Rh123). Values represent average (±S.E.M., n= 6) amounts of Rh123 in fourth rinsing solutions and in Triton X-100 solutions, expressed as percentage of the amount of Rh123 added at the start of the incubation.
N.D., not detectable.
