EDTA dipotassium dihydrate
Metal Chelators
EDTA dipotassium dihydrate is a versatile metal ion chelator that efficiently forms stable, water-soluble complexes with various metal ions. It is widely used as a blood anticoagulant to prevent coagulation, thereby preserving the morphology and functionality of cells in blood specimens. Additionally, in industrial applications, EDTA dipotassium dihydrate mitigates the detrimental effects of metal ions, helping to prevent oxidation and degradation processes.
