Abstract
1. 1. Body fluids contain ion pairs such as NaCl 0, CaCl +, CaHCO + 3 and MgSO 0 4. 2. 2. Ion pairs must often be considered in the quantitation of acid-base, solubility, Donnan and other equilibria. 3. 3. Fluxes of ion pairs, such as NaCO − 3 and perhaps NaSO − 4 and NaCl 0, may sometimes contribute significantly to total ion fluxes across cell membranes. 4. 4. Dissociation constants for ion pairs are discussed, but values appropriate to body fluids are often uncertain.
