title: Contributions to the basic problems of complexometry-XX Determination of calcium and magnesium.
abstract: A new method for the determination of magnesium in the presence of calcium is described. Calcium is masked with EGTA whilst magnesium is titrated with DCTA with Methylthymol Blue as the indicator. Calcium can be determined in the same solution by back-titration of the excess EGTA with calcium chloride solution. The usual masking agents for iron, aluminium and other heavy metals can be used.
