Calcium (Ca) Assay Kit

Calcium (Ca) Assay Kit

Product Introduction

Calcium is a metallic element that appears as silvery white crystals at room temperature. Animal bones, clam shells, and egg shells all contain calcium carbonate. The calcium content in living organisms is mainly detected by measuring the concentration of calcium ions .

Blood calcium is almost entirely present in plasma, so blood calcium refers to plasma calcium. Plasma calcium has two forms: ionized calcium and bound calcium. Only ionized calcium plays a direct physiological role. It is in dynamic equilibrium with bound calcium and is affected by blood pH. Blood calcium levels are related to many important physiological functions. Too high or too low will affect normal physiology.

 

Features

Easy to operate, the test can be completed within 5 minutes .


Detection principle    

The calcium ions in the sample react with the complex indicator Calmagite to form a Calmagite-Ca complex; the color depth is proportional to the calcium ion concentration, and this complex has a maximum absorption peak at 520 nm. The figure below shows the standard curve for the determination of calcium in this kit. The following standard curve is for reference only:
