Abstract: We define the chemical potential as the Lagrange multiplier of the baryon charge operator in the transfer matrix formalism of QCD on a lattice. Transforming the partition function into an euclidean path integral we get the Hasenfratz-Karsh action both for Wilson and Kogut-Susskind fermions. In the latter case the chemical potential in the spin-diagonal basis is half that in the flavour basis. Some open problems in the spin-diagonal basis are pointed out.
