Calcium (Ca²⁺) – Measurement with HORIBA Instruments
Calcium ions (Ca²⁺) is a key parameter in many analytical fields, from water and environmental analysis to agricultural, food, and laboratory applications. As an essential component of natural water, soils, and biological samples, the concentration of calcium provides insights into water hardness, nutrient availability, chemical equilibrium, and biological processes.
Why is the determination of Ca²⁺ important?
- Water Analysis: Calcium influences the total hardness of water and is crucial for evaluating drinking, process, and wastewater.
- Agriculture & Hydroponics: The calcium content in soil or nutrient solutions directly affects plant growth and nutrient uptake.
- Food and Beverage Analysis: In dairy products, mineral water, and other foods, calcium is an important quality parameter.
- Biological Samples: In medicine and biotechnology, calcium plays a role in cellular processes, muscle contraction, and signal transmission.
HORIBA Measurement Devices At HeylNeomeris, we offer portable measurement devices from HORIBA’s LAQUAtwin series, which enable fast and reliable determination of calcium ions directly on-site. These devices use ion-selective electrodes and require only small sample volumes—ideal for mobile applications.
For precise laboratory analysis, combined Ca²⁺ electrodes are available, such as the HORIBA 6583S-10C. These electrodes are suitable for a wide concentration range and can be flexibly combined with various measurement systems.
Accessories & Calibration Solutions For accurate measurements, suitable calibration standards, ion strength regulators, and cleaning solutions are essential. In our online store, we offer specialized accessories from HORIBA to ensure maximum measurement accuracy and the longevity of the electrodes.
