Acidity Regulation E333

Chelating Agent Tricalcium Dicitrate

Product Description

Calcium Citrate E333 CAS 813-94-5

Product Overview

Calcium Citrate is a versatile ingredient with multiple applications across various industries. It serves as a highly bioavailable source of calcium, making it ideal for use in calcium supplements and fortified foods. Additionally, it functions as an effective acidity regulator, buffering pH levels in food and beverage products. Calcium Citrate also acts as a chelating agent, binding metals to prevent oxidation, and as a firming agent, improving the texture of processed foods.

Key Benefits

High Bioavailability: Easily absorbed calcium source
Acidity Regulation: Maintains optimal pH levels
Chelating Agent: Prevents oxidation by binding metals
Texture Improvement: Enhances firmness in processed foods

Target Industries and Applications: Dietary supplements, food and beverage industry, pharmaceuticals.

Packaging & Delivery

Sealed containers (plastic or lined bags) to prevent moisture absorption.
