A method for the estimation of total calcium in serum or heparinized plasma.

A simple titrimetric method for the determination of total calcium in serum or heparinized plasma is described. After removing interfering substances with an ion-exchange resin, calcium is reacted with glyoxalbis (2-hydroxyanil), GBA, and the resulting red colour titrated with ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid in the presence of a methanol/glycerol mixture. No special equipment is used, deproteinization is not necessary and only 0.2 ml of sample is required.
