Article Grading: The following comments were left by the quality and importance raters: (edit · refresh) I know that magnesium chloride is used in nutrition, but not exactly in what applications. A suggestion is to have the nutritional applications, indications, contraindications, sources, dose, etc added to this type of page, or a link made available.

[edit] Move
I propose that the second word in the title be written in lowercase because of the following:
- As far as I have ever seen, compounds aren't capitalized, especially not the anion in an ionic compound
- The wikipedia manual of style says this is the preferred/accepted way
- None of the other members of the Magnesium compounds category have capitalized anion names (I haven't checked other compound categories)

Support strongly! This page was erroneously moved by a new Wikipedian last month (see User_talk:Infralite for my follow up), I just got distracted and never initiated the move. a couple of thousand articles with chemical substance names, and all use lower case for the second word.

Done immediately! Wim van Dorst 19:22, 23 October 2005 (UTC).
[edit] ELRQ: Elaboration request
How does one go about extracting it from seawater (preferably using easy to get tools / ingredients ) ?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.101.15.241 (talk • contribs) 11:01, December 26, 2007
[edit] Replacing chembox with chembox new
The information regarding the hydrates has all been moved across- multiple compounds in the chem box will cause problems in future if links to other databases are introduced.--Axiosaurus (talk) 10:20, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Use in Polymerase Chain reaction
This baby is a critical cofactor for DNA (and RNA?) polymerases, and as such is used commercially in Polymerase chain reactions - this should definitely be addressed here. Apologies for my brevity, I'll be back Geno-Supremo (talk) 13:41, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
