red-brown transparent flakes or powder. Soluble in hot water, acid and ammonia, slowly soluble in cold water, insoluble in ethanol. The aqueous solution was acidic. It can be reduced to ferrous citrate by light and heat.
The aqueous ammonia was reacted with the ferric sulfate solution, filtered and washed with water, citric acid was added, and the precipitate was heated to dissolve completely, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated and dried to obtain a finished product.
as a food Iron fortifier, the absorption effect is better than that of inorganic iron. China's provisions can be used for salt and sandwich sugar, the amount of 3600 ~ 7200mg/kg; In high iron grain and its products for 1000 ~ 1200mg/kg in dairy products and infant food for 360 ~ 600mg/kg; 150-290mg/kg in cereals and their products; 60-120mg/kg in beverages.
Introduction | Iron citrate can be regarded as several conjugate bases derived from ferric iron (Fe3) and citric acid. Most of these compounds are orange or reddish brown solids, slightly soluble in hot water, and their aqueous solution is orange or orange in an environment with a pH value of less than 2, and turns green when it is greater than 2. |
use | iron citrate (III) is a component of the structural basis gated by the outer membrane receptor FecA of E. coli. The binding of ferric citrate initiated a conformational change in the extracellular loop that closed the outer pouch of FecA. ferric citrate, also called ferric citrate, red-brown transparent small flake crystals, or crystalline powder, insoluble in ethanol, slowly dissolves in cold water, and easily dissolves in hot water. Iron citrate is an edible citrate, often used as an additive or sour agent for food and feed. Iron citrate is often used as a food iron fortifier and nutritional supplement in the field of food science; in the field of medicine, it can be used as a radioactive medicine to check abnormal iron metabolism and hematopoietic function; it can also be used as a feed additive. for the pharmaceutical industry and the preparation of lemon ammonium haploid breeding in the preparation of improved nish medium, etc. |

application | ferric citrate is used in medicine to dialysis blood and regulate iron levels in patients with chronic kidney disease. It acts on the phosphate present in the diet and forms insoluble compounds, thereby reducing its absorption by the digestive system. |
