Metabolite Identification
Common NameHypochlorite
DescriptionHypochlorite, also known as hclo or [cloh], belongs to the class of inorganic compounds known as non-metal hypochlorites. These are inorganic non-metallic compounds containing a hypochlorite as its largest oxoanion. Hypochlorite is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Hypochlorite exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans.
