The channel formed by colicin Ia in planar lipid bilayer was used to develop a method determining a diameter of each channel entrance. The method is based on measuring of a channel filling with nonelectrolytes through cis- and trans-entrance separately. To do this, one need to establish the two things only: the conductance of an ion channel and the conductivity of used solutions. Using the method to predict the internal geometry of a channel lumen is discussed.
