Calcium chloride 0.20 M

Reagent for Recalcification of Citrate Plasma and Citrate Blood (Calcium Chloride) according to TU 9398-039-05595541-2011

Calcium chloride (0.2 M solution) is intended for initiating the coagulation reaction during calcium-dependent tests in thromboelastography and thromboelastometry.

Method Principle: The addition of an excess of calcium ions to the investigated plasma neutralizes citrate ions that stabilize the plasma, initiating coagulation under the influence of a specific activator.

Calcium chloride reagent is a transparent colorless liquid, and the concentration of calcium ions in it is in the range of 0.19–0.21 mol/liter.
