Description

Ammonium bicarbonate is a substance that has been used as a buffer to maintain pH in wastewater treatment. Ammonium bicarbonate has also been shown to be effective in the treatment of metabolic disorders, such as glycogen storage diseases and urea cycle disorders. Ammonium bicarbonate is synthesized by reacting aqueous solutions of ammonium chloride and sodium or potassium carbonate. It can also be produced through the reaction of ammonia with carbon dioxide in water vapor. The analytical method for ammonium bicarbonate is based on the reaction with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and the formation of ammonium trifluoroacetate. This compound can react with water to produce carbon dioxide and ammonia, which may function as a nutrient solution for microorganisms. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases are enzymes that break down cyclic nucleotides, which are important for many physiological functions, including muscle contraction and regulation of blood pressure
