The transport of gold ions (5X105 M) from a diluted hydrochloric acid solution to a stripping solution across a supported liquid membrane (SLM) containing 0.1 M solution of polydentate neutral sulfide podand 1,12-di-2-thienyl-2,5,8,11-tetrathiadodecane (TTD) in m-chlorotoluene was studied. The rate of transport of gold ions increased in the sequence of the stripping solutions, NaBr
