Chloride is a prominent negatively charged ion of the blood, where it represents 70% of the body’s total negative ion content.
Chloride is a by-product of the reaction between chlorine and an electrolyte, such as potassium, magnesium, or sodium, which are essential for human metabolism.
Chloride salts are essential for sustaining human metabolism and have none of the effects of isolated chlorine gas.

Chloride: Chloride is the major anion (negatively charged ion) found in the fluid outside of cells and in blood.
Increased chloride (hyperchloremia): Elevations in chloride may be seen in diarrhea, certain kidney diseases, and sometimes in overactivity of the parathyroid glands.
The normal serum range for chloride is 98 - 108 mmol/L. Bicarbonate: The bicarbonate ion acts as a buffer to maintain the normal levels of acidity (pH) in blood and other fluids in the body.

The chloride ion preferably is derived from an alkali metal chloride such as lithium chloride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, rubidium chloride, or cesium chloride, an alkaline earth metal chloride such as beryllium chloride, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, or strontium chloride.
The chloride ion-containing compound is employed in the form of an aqueous solution in which 1 g of the chloride ion-containing compound is dissolved preferably in 1 to 20 g of water.
Otherwise, the chloride ion-containing compound can be added to a portion of water in an amount not to reach the saturation concentration, and thus prepared aqueous solution can be mixed with an aqueous mixture solution containing an organic solvent in which a phosphonium bromide and a chloride ion are contained.

 Ion Channels for Beginners Page 4
The three main groups of ion channels are 1) the voltage-gated channels such as the sodium and potassium channels of the nerve axons and nerve terminals, 2) the extracellular ligand-activated channels which includes channels such as GABA and glycine receptor channels, most of which are regulated by ligands that are "neurotransmitters".
Chloride channels in excitable tissues function in the same way as the potassium channel in that they serve to "dampen" the electrical excitability of the neuron.
Chloride channels contribute to processes as diverse as membrane excitability, transepithelial transport, regulation of cell volume and regulation of pH of intracellular organelles.

It was found the presence of calcium nitrite decreased, or in some cases eliminated the potential shifts associated with different chloride ion concentrations in solution, thereby, greatly reducing or eliminating the possibility of galvanic corrosion effects.
Plain carbon steel specimens were exposed to chloride ion concentration gradients by two chloride solutions on the same piece of steel connected by a salt bridge.
The resulting models for steel specimens exposed to chloride ion concentration gradients were at varying times indicative of a diffusion controlled reaction, while the models for steel exposed to uniform chloride concentration represented an activation controlled reaction.

 HHMI News: Ion Channels Enable Bacteria to Resist Stomach Acid
According to Miller, ion channels from bacteria have proven enormously useful to researchers studying the structure and function of ion channels because the bacteria enable the scientists to produce sufficient quantities of the proteins for their studies.
As ion channel researchers, weve been so happy at the boon of high-quality protein weve received from these bacterial genomes, that the whole question of why the channels are even there has been largely ignored, said Miller.
And what switches this bacterial chloride channel to an open state is not a neurotransmitter or voltage change, as is the case with their homologs in the mammalian nervous system, but a high extracellular acid concentration.

The effect of the sand content on the development of pore structure, the permeability to water, and the diffusivity of chloride ions was studied on portland cement mortars.
An electrically-accelerated concentration cell test was used to determine the coefficient of chloride ion diffusion while a high pressure permeability cell was employed to assess liquid permeability.
The coefficient of chloride ion diffusion varied linearly with the critical pore radius as determined by mercury intrusion porosimetry while permeability was found to follow a power-law relationship vs. this critical radius.
