Molecular biologist in Salt Lake City. Nostalgic for the days when PCR was new and cool. Still trying to understand In Vitro Diagnostics. Hiker, new grandfather.
This might be a dumb question but: they are adding 1.7mM EDTA. The binding constants of EDTA for some of these trace elements are very high. Won't EDTA completely chelate these? (Mg is at 12 mM but its binding constant is much lower). Nonetheless, a great idea overall.
