Open-access Evaluation of serum ionized calcium by ion-selective electrode method in healthy dogs

Serum ionized calcium concentrations were evaluated by ion-selective electrode method in 40 healthy dogs and compared to ionized calcium estimates obtained considering the half value of corrected total calcium, measured by colorimetric method. No difference was observed between ionized calcium obtained by both methods and low correlation was estimated (r= 0.328) between the methods.
