ABSTRACT: The membrane permeability coefficient for sodium and potassium ions in unicellular organisms can be calculated using the data for cell volume, surface and mean generation time during growth and dividing of cells by binary. Accordingly theory of proposed method, the membrane permeability coefficients for passed trough outer cell membrane sodium and potassium ions, is equal to the volume of unicellular organism divided to product between cell surface and mean generation time of cells. The calculated by this way diapason of values overlaps with experimentally measured diapason of values of permeability coefficient for sodium and potassium ions. The deviation between the theoretically calculated and experimentally measured values of permeability coefficient does not exceed one order of magnitude.
