Description

Sodium rhodizonate dibasic is a chemical reagent that can be used as a nutrient or biochemical supplement in the laboratory. It is a white crystalline solid that reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide. Sodium rhodizonate dibasic is used to measure the concentration of picolinic acid, which is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle. This compound can also be used as a metal chelate for removal of heavy metals from wastewater or soil. The reaction mechanism for this compound has been studied using plasma mass spectrometry and solid phase microextraction techniques.
