China Supplier Citric Acid Monohydrate and Anhydrous 30-100 mesh

Citric Acid Monohydrate 8-40 8-80 Mesh Anhydrous Dear friends,   We are a main supplier of Citric Acid Anhydrous Food Grade  in China.  We can supply good quality Citric Acid Monohydrate  to you with  competitive price. The details of the product are as follows: Product Description 1. Citric acid is a weak organic acid. It is a natural preservative and is also used to add an acidic, or sour, taste to foods and soft drinks.   2. In biochemistry, it is important as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, and therefore occurs in the metabolism of virtually all living things.   3. It can also be used as an environmentally benign cleaning agent. 

4. Citric acid exists in greater than trace amounts in a variety of fruits and vegetables, most notably citrus fruits. Lemons and limes have particularly high concentrations of the acid; it can constitute as much as 8% of the dry weight of these fruits (about 47 g/L in the juices[4]).   5. The concentrations of citric acid in citrus fruits range from 0.005 mol/L for oranges and grapefruits to 0.30 mol/L in lemons and limes. Within species, these values vary depending on the cultivar and the circumstances in which the fruit was grown.     Product pictures     Speciication

Packaging & Shipping   Application   1.Citric Acid Anhydrous USP is an organic acid found in a variety of fruits and vegetables as Acidity regulators , but it is most concentrated in lemons and limes.   2. Citric Acid Anhydrous USP is a natural preservative and is also used to add an acidic (sour) taste to foods and soft drinks.   3. In biochemistry, Citric Acid Anhydrous USP is important as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle or Krebs cycle (see last paragraph) and therefore occurs in the metabolism of almost all living things. Excess citric acid is readily metabolized and eliminated from the body.   4. Citric Acid Anhydrous USP is an antioxidant.   5. It is also used as an environmentally friendly cleaning agent.   Company Information
