The structures of solid magnesium citrates have been characterized by X-ray crystallography.In the 1:1 salt, only one carboxylate of citrate is deprotonated. It has the formula Mg(H 2 C 6 H 5 O 7) 2 The other form of magnesium citrate has the formula Mg(HC 6 H 5 O 7)(H 2 O) 2, consisting of the citrate dianion (both carboxylic acids are deprotonated). [1]
Triethyl citrate is an ester of citric acid.It is a colorless, odorless liquid used as a food additive, emulsifier and solvent (E number E1505) [4] to stabilize foams, especially as whipping aid for egg white. [5]
Speciation diagram for a 10-millimolar solution of citric acid. The violet curve corresponds to the trisodium citrate. As a conjugate base of a weak acid, citrate can perform as a buffering agent or acidity regulator, resisting changes in pH.
Citric acid is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 8 O 7. [10] It is a colorless weak organic acid. [10] It occurs naturally in citrus fruits.In biochemistry, it is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, which occurs in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms.
Calcium citrate is an intermediate in the isolation of citric acid from the fungal fermentation process by which citric acid is produced industrially. [2] The citric acid in the broth solution is neutralized by limewater, precipitating insoluble calcium citrate.
Potassium citrate is rapidly absorbed when given by mouth, and is excreted in the urine. [4] Since it is an alkaline salt, it is effective in reducing the pain and frequency of urination when these are caused by highly acidic urine. [5]
Caffeine citrate, sold under the brand name Cafcit among others, is a medication used to treat a lack of breathing in premature babies. [5] Specifically it is given to babies who are born at less than 35 weeks or weigh less than 2 kilograms (4.4 lb) once other causes are ruled out. [6]
HE 2359-2844 is a subdwarf located approximately 800 light years away in the constellation Sculptor, with a surface temperature of approximately 38,000 °C (68,400 °F).). Along with stars HE 1256-2738 and LS IV-14 116, HE 2359-2844 forms a new group of star called heavy metal subdw
