EDTA potassium salt

Description:
EDTA potassium salt, known chemically as potassium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, is a chelating agent widely used in various applications, including pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and analytical chemistry. It is a white, crystalline powder that is highly soluble in water, making it effective for binding metal ions. The compound features multiple carboxylate groups that can form stable complexes with divalent and trivalent metal ions, such as calcium, magnesium, and lead, which is particularly useful in preventing metal ion interference in biochemical assays. EDTA potassium salt is often employed in formulations to enhance the stability of active ingredients and improve the bioavailability of nutrients in agricultural products. Additionally, it is utilized in laboratory settings for metal ion extraction and purification processes. The substance is generally regarded as safe for use in food and pharmaceuticals, although care should be taken regarding its dosage and potential interactions with other compounds. Overall, EDTA potassium salt is a versatile and valuable compound in both industrial and research applications.
