Ok, it's 1.5 mg per mL of Blood, you can reach this concentration by disolving 0.6 mg of EDTA in 10 mL of still water, then you add 100 microLitters (0.1mL) of this 6% EDTA into a glass tube. The next thing you've to do is to dry the test tube so that you'll only have 6 mg of EDTA, enough to anticoagulate exactly 4 mL of fresh complete blood. The final concentration of EDTA in the blood should be into the range of 1.25 to 1.75 mg per mL. I found this in Dacie's Haematology. karlosgb@live.com.mx

What is the final concentration of a edta solution if a 1l of 50x stock solution was made using 18.612g of edta mw 372.24?

the mass of the EDTA used to prepare 1L oi solution is 18.612g. The formula mass is 372.24 g/mol. Therefore concentration of the 50x solution is: 18.612 g 1 mol ----------- x --------- = 0.050000 mol/L = 50.000 mM 1L 372.24 g

What are different types of EDTA titration?

1. Direct Titration In direct titration, you simply add an indicator to the solution of the metal ion and titrate with EDTA. Before starting the titration,it is needed to check that the pH of the solution to obtain a good formation constant value and on the other hand indicator colour change as well. 2.Indiract titration EDTA can be used as titrant for anions. Anions can be precipitated with suitable metal ion. Filter and wash the ppt with proper solution. Then boil in excess EDTA to complex metal ion(ppt). Back titrate to determine how much metal ion you had. 3.Back Titration In a back titration an excess of EDTA is added to the metal ion solution, and the excess EDTA is titrated with a known concentration of a second metal ion. The second metal ion must form a weaker complex with EDTA than the analyte ion so the second metal does not displace the analyte ion from its complex with EDTA. 4.Displacement titration Here the analyte is treated with an excess of a second metal bound to EDTA. The analyte ion displaces the second metal from the EDTA complex, and then the second metal is titrated with EDTA.
