Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Disodium EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is a chelating agent that forms stable complexes with divalent and trivalent metal ions including Ca²⁺, Mg, Pb and Fe. It binds metals through its four carboxylate groups and two amine nitrogens, preventing metaldependent enzymatic reactions and altering solution stability.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in metalion sequestration studies, buffer stabilization, chelation chemistry research, enzymaticreaction control, and formulation science.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include electrolyte imbalance, nephrotoxicity at high doses, and chelation of essential minerals. Handle with metalchelatingagent precautions.
Only GMP materials will be supplied, logistics all according to GDP.
