Sodium Citrate, Dihydrate, Crystal, Reagent, ACS

Sodium Citrate, Dihydrate, Crystal, Reagent, ACS is a vital chemical compound widely recognized for its applications in laboratories and medical settings. As a sodium salt of citric acid, it is often referred to as "sour salt" due to its mildly tart flavor. This exceptional reagent serves multiple purposes, predominantly as an acidity buffer or regulator, as well as a highly effective anticoagulant.

Key Features:

Anticoagulant Properties: Sodium Citrate effectively chelates calcium ions in blood, disrupting the clotting process, making it essential in blood collection and storage.

Quality Assurance: Manufactured to ACS grade standards, it is regarded as the benchmark for purity and quality. This guarantees reliability for various analytical applications.

Chemical Characteristics: Available in a dihydrate crystalline form, providing stability and ease of use in laboratory settings.
