How does chlorine added to drinking water kill bacteria and other harmful organisms? Why
doesn't it harm us?
Scientific American (Ask The Experts)
The article explains that although not much is known about how chlorine kills viruses and
bacteria scientists hypothesize that in bacterial cells chlorine attacks the cell wall.
By attacking the cell wall of a gram-negative bacterium (gram- positive bacterium are
more tolerant, but most don't pose a threat) chlorine severely increases the permeability
of the outer membrane, leaving the bacterium vulnerable to destruction. What the experts
know is that chlorine, if properly administrated to water, eliminates most waterborne
pathogens. The reason chlorine is not very harmful to human cells is because when water
reaches the tap it only has a little chlorine in it, enough to kill bacterial cells but
not enough to harm human cells.
