我们需要做更多研究来探索这些细胞的潜能。

And the electrical potential for the whole reaction, called the standard cell potential, is just the sum of the standard potentials of both half reactions.

整个反应的电势称为标准电池电势，只是两个半反应的标准电势之和。

That process started by depolarizing the cell — that is, pushing the cell's membrane potential from negative toward positive, past a threshold that triggered voltage-gated ion channels to open.

这个过程是从细胞去极化开始的——也就是说，将细胞膜电位从负极推高到正极，超过了触发电压门控离子通道打开的阈值。
