Diffusion of the Chlorine Ion in Potassium Chloride

Potassium chloride

Major uses Potassium chloride (KCl) is inorganic salt used for making fertilizers, since the growth of many plants is limited by their potassium intake. Potassium in plants is important for the osmotic and ionic regulation, plays a key role in the water homeostasis and is closely connected with processes involved in the protein synthesis. KCl is also used for the manufacture of potassium hydrox...

Potassium chloride in fertigation

The rapid proliferation of fertigation in modern agriculture has brought about a growing demand for factory mixed fertilizer solutions, as well as wide-scale dissolution of solid fertilizers by farmers in the field. Rules of chemistry and physics control the rate of dissolution and, hence, the nutrient content in the fertilizer solution. Potassium chloride (KCl) is the cheapest potassium-contai...

Sodium-potassium-chloride cotransport.

Obligatory, coupled cotransport of Na(+), K(+), and Cl(-) by cell membranes has been reported in nearly every animal cell type. This review examines the current status of our knowledge about this ion transport mechanism. Two isoforms of the Na(+)-K(+)-Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC) protein (approximately 120-130 kDa, unglycosylated) are currently known. One isoform (NKCC2) has at least three altern...

Enteric-coated Potassium Chloride

value and -therefore any improvement in homoeossatic control would have been obvious during pregnancy. Thus our argument that the shape of the curve may be a more importa indicator of homoeostatc control than any actual level reached appears to be supported by these cases. It is probable that factors controlling fasting blood glucose concentrations are separate from those affecting homoeostatic...
