:Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid sodium salt
Description:
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid sodium salt, commonly referred to as EDTA sodium salt, is a chelating agent widely used in various applications, including biochemistry, medicine, and industrial processes. It is a white, crystalline powder that is highly soluble in water, making it effective in binding metal ions. The compound has a molecular formula of C10H14N2Na4O8 and is characterized by its ability to form stable complexes with divalent and trivalent metal ions, such as calcium, magnesium, and lead. This property makes it valuable in applications like metal ion sequestration, water treatment, and as a preservative in food and cosmetics. In biological contexts, EDTA is often used in laboratory settings to prevent metal ion interference in enzymatic reactions and to stabilize biological samples. Additionally, it has therapeutic uses in chelation therapy for heavy metal poisoning. However, its use should be carefully monitored, as excessive chelation can lead to the depletion of essential minerals in the body.
