ADM Sodium Citrate Dihydrate Granular (USP-NF/FCC) (042410) is derived from citric acid and is available in a free-flowing, colorless granular form. It is odorless and freely soluble in water, but insoluble in alcohol. Sodium citrate dihydrate is the most widely used emulsifying salt in sliced processed cheese products. It is commonly used as a buffering agent in combination with citric acid to provide the precise pH control required in many food and beverage applications. In meat products, it is used as an anticoagulant for fresh livestock blood and as a curing accelerator. The detergent-building and rapid biodegradability characteristics of sodium citrate enable its use as an environmentally acceptable phosphate substitute in a large variety of household cleaning products.
