Determination of Calcium ions in milk using titration. Background Calcium is a mineral which is essential to the human body. In fact 1.5% of the human body is made up of calcium‚ and not just the obvious uses such as bone and teeth formation but it is also a vital factor in many enzyme reactions‚ for example blood clotting. It also partakes in the regulation of the hearts rhythm. Lack of the crucial mineral can result in the build up of cadmium and lead‚ both of which are toxic. along
