Calcium chloride is a white deliquescent compound which is used as a reagent in biochemistry. Calcium plays important roles in many biological processes, including signal transduction, muscle contraction, maintenance of cell membranes and cell wall stability. Calcium chloride is a soluble compound that can serve as a source of calcium ions in a solution. Can be useful for displacing ions from solution for example, phosphate may be displaced from solution by calcium.Also available: Calcium Chloride Anhydrous (sc-207392) Calcium chloride hydrate (sc-234263) Calcium Chloride, Dihydrate, ACS (sc-202091).
