Abstract
Anion interference is avoided through precipitation of Ca as oxalate. However oxalate ion interferes in the flame photometric determination of Ca, and therefore the procedure was modified to include oxalate in the standards. The mean serum Ca value obtained on duplicate analyses from 86 animals by the flame photometric method was 0.63 mg Ca++/100 ml lower than the Clark-Collip value.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
