It hinders it.
EDTA, a commonly used anticoagulant, works by chelating calcium. This also has the consequence that large volumes of blood transfusions causes calcium deficiency.

What effect does changing the concentration of calcium ions have on the coagulation of milk?
the rate of coagulation increases as the concentration of calcium ions increase.
How would a decrease in the concentration of calcium ions in the blood affect the process of hemostasis?
coagulation would proceed more slowly
Which ingredient found in coffee and cola can decrease calcium absorption?
Caffeine: Caffeine has a small effect on calcium absorption. It can temporarily increase calcium excretion and may modestly decrease calcium absorption, an effect easily offset by increasing calcium consumption in the diet.
Minerals that have role in blood coagulation?
calcium
What is the effect of calcitonin and parathyroid hormone?
Calcitonic and Parathamon decrease calcium level.Phosphate level is decreased by calcitonin.Parathon increase it.
What ion is critical in blood coagulation?
Calcium. And also Magnesium in trace amounts.
How does bases effect calcium carbonate?
Because calcium carbonate is a base, depending on the pH of the base, it will either increase or decrease the pH of the calcium carbonate very slightly. It will probably have little to no noticeable effects.
What purpose does EDTA in the lavender tube serve?
It prevents coagulation by binding calcium ions.
Why does the higher the concentration of calcium in milk speeds up the rate of the coagulation of milk?
because it does
What effect changing the concentration of calcium ions has on the rate of coagulation of milk?
Rennin is an enzyme that converts the soluble milk protein caseinogen into the insoluble protein paracasein, producing the curd that can be processed into cheese or other milk products. Inorganic ions such as metal ions can act as cofactors. The ion may combine with either the enzyme or the substrate to reduce the activation energy. These ions are called activators. Activators are thought to make the enzyme substrate complex form more easily. For example, the action of amylase on starch is quicker in the presence of chloride ions. Calcium ions are required to activate the enzyme rennin. In this demonstration, calcium ion is removed by precipitating it as calcium citrate. In the tube containing the sodium citrate, calcium citrate forms as a precipitate. what effect changing the concentration of calcium ions has on the rate of coagulation of milk how calcium ions influece the activity of rennin in bringing about the coagulation of milk because it does
