Elemental Analysis - Calcium (Ca)

Calcium is a mineral that is an essential part of bones and teeth. The heart, nerves and blood coagulation systems also need calcium to function. Calcium-rich foods include milk and dairy products, cabbage and broccoli, calcium-enriched citrus juices, mineral water, and calcium-treated soy products.

Calcium is usually taken by mouth for the treatment and prevention of low calcium levels. It is also used for conditions associated with low calcium levels, including muscle cramps, weak and brittle bones, softening of bones in children, often vitamin D deficiency and softening of the bones.

Bones and teeth contain more than 99 percent of the calcium in the human body. Calcium is also found in the blood, muscles, and other tissues. Calcium in bones is used as a reserve that can be released into the body when needed. Calcium concentration in the body tends to decrease as we age because it is released from the body over time.

Getting extra calcium helps bones rebuild properly and stay strong.

In short, the main role of calcium in the body is to give structure and strength to the skeleton. The structure of the skeleton in vertebrates is provided by a form of calcium phosphate mainly found in collagen.

In the tests and analyzes carried out in our organization, which has a wide range of technological equipment, trained and experienced staff and applies the most modern methods, national and international standards and legal regulations in force are complied with. Among the numerous tests carried out in this context, there are also calcium (Ca) testing services within the framework of elemental analysis.
