EDTA tripotassium salt has been used in
a study to assess the safety of EDTA and HEDTA ingredients in cosmetic formulations.
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is an aminopolycarboxylic acid with the formula [CH2N(CH2CO2H)2]2. This white, water-soluble solid is widely used to bind to iron and calcium ions. It binds these ions as a hexadentate ("six-toothed") chelating agent. EDTA is produced as several salts, notably disodium EDTA, sodium calcium edetate, and tetrasodium EDTA
Application. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tripotassium salt dehydrate can be used to study chelators, biochemicals and reagents. EDTA tripotassium salt has been used in a study to assess the safety of EDTA and HEDTA ingredients in cosmetic formulations.
