Spatial Buffer Mechanism: passive removal & transfer of e-c K+ through (mainly) astrocyte membranes & cytoplasm
Transfer Cells: (K+-selective)
Flux driven by a chemical gradient
Computational analysis
Flux driven by an electrical gradient
G-M (1983)J Physiol 335 393-426
Conclusions: SB flux ≈ 5x diffusion fluxSpace constant ≈ 0.2 mm (rat brain), 0.03 mm (frog brain)
