Abstract
The measurement of free intracellular magnesium (Mg^2+^) using the ^31^P chemical shifts of ATP requires the use of appropriate calibration solutions to determine the chemical‐shift limits Δ^ATP^~αβ~ and Δ^MgATP^~αβ~. Solutions containing excess Mg^2+^ contain significant amounts of Mg~2~ATP and yield positive errors in the value of Δ^MgATP^~αβ~. For physiological applications this may overestimate free intracellular Mg^2+^ by as much as 300%. This error may be minimized if appropriate mole ratios of Mg^2+^/ATP are used to calibrate Δ^MgATP^~αβ~. © 1992 Academic Press, Inc.
