“…In general, a high concentration of treating chemical could cause a reduction of permeability, and at low concentration, an increase. The different effects of the treatment by the same compound with various concentrations has been assumed to be due to different mechanisms (Lee et al 1971). Slatyer (1967) suggested that chemicals act through a reversible reduction in metabolic activity or cause pronounced structural changes in the membrane, hence inducing permeability changes.…”

The effect of Alanap, N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA), on the permeability of onion {Alliuni cepa) epidermal cells was studied by means of a plasmometric method. Urea, 1,3-dimethylurea, and water were used for the test of permeability.It was found that the treatment of onion epidermis with NPA at various concentration (5x10--^ to 5 x 10-*^ M) altered the deplasmolysis rates and the absolute permeability constants. However, NPA did not alter the osmotic value of the treated cells. It was suggested that NPA treatment altered the permeability of onion epidermal cells due to the effect of this herbicide on the plasma membrane. K. A. FENG Physiol.Plant. 32.1974
