Into plus Fe
Explain serum iron analysis
Acidification using HCl to convert ferrous ion to ferric ion. Addition of glycolic acid or ascorbic acid to reduce ferric ion to shit (d ko mbsa HO). Change in solution’s color as the color indicator, tripyridyltriazine (TPTZ) or bathophenanthroline
Into plus Fe
It is involved in the transport of oxygen like phosphate

Into plus Fe
2 types of ions based on their electrical charge
Cations (+)Anions (-)
Into plus Fe
Explain ions migrating capabilities.
Cations migrate towards the cathode.
Anions migrate towards the anode.
