Chloride shift (also known as the Hamburger shift or Hamburger's phenomenon, named after Hartog Jakob Hamburger (1859–1924), Dutch physiologist) is a process which occurs in a cardiovascular system and refers to the exchange of bicarbonate (HCO3-) and chloride (Cl-) across the membrane of red blood cells (RBCs).[1]
Carbon dioxide (CO2) generated in tissues passively diffuses into the interstitial fluid, subsequently entering capillaries, and finally entering the RBCs, balancing the intracellular and extracellular CO2 concentrations. While interstitial fluid & plasma do not contain appreciable quantities of carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme which converts CO2 to Carbonic Acid, the RBCs do and the dissolved gas is converted to this molecule, (H2CO3), which then spontaneously dissociates to form bicarbonate (HCO-3) and a hydrogen ion (H+). More CO2 passively diffuses into the cell in response to the fall of intracellular CO2 to maintain equilibrium.
The blood cells are impermeable to hydrogen ions, trapping them within the cell, but are able to exchange bicarbonate ions for chloride ions across Band 3. In response to the raise in intracellular bicarbonate, this exchanger begins importing chloride to the cell and extruding bicarbonate.
The opposite process occurs when the pCO2 falls, as when the blood passes through the lungs; CO2a net production of carbon dioxide within the cell takes place, leading to a fall in intracellular bicarbonate concentrations. This leads to an inward movement of bicarbonate across Band 3, extruding chloride and taking bicarbonate into the cell where much of it will be converted to CO2, which can passively diffuse out to the blood[2]
This chloride shift may also regulate the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen through the chloride ion acting as an allosteric effector.[3]

Cl- <-- <-- <-- <-- Cl-
Bicarbonate in the red blood cell (RBC) exchanging with chloride from plasma.
The underlying properties creating the chloride shift are the presence of carbonic anhydrase within the red blood cell but not the blood, and the permeability of the blood to bicarbonate but not to hydrogen. Exchange of bicarbonate for chloride ions across the erythrocyte cell membrane maintains the electrical neutrality of the cell. Bicarbonate moves against its concentration gradient: erythrocyte [HCO3] is about 15 mmol/L; plasma [HCO3] is about 24 mmol/L. Chloride moves down its concentration gradient. This active transport is facilitated by the Band 3 anion exchanger protein.
