Determination of Serum Calcium by Automated Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy
Keyword(s):
Abstract A procedure is presented for the automated determination of serum calcium by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The serum sample, diluted with acidified lanthanum dichloride, is dialyzed against 0.1 N hydrochloric acid and a portion of the recipient solution is pumped into the atomizer-burner of the spectrophotometer. Data are presented on the precision and reproducibility of the flow system. Addition of calcium to serum shows a mean recovery of 99%. A comparison of the results of analyses on random specimens by permanganate titration and the automated procedure shows good agreement.
