Trisodium citrate in the food industry

 

 

Trisodium citrate is used as an acidity regulator to maintain the correct pH of the product. It can be found in fizzy drinks, especially those with lemon flavour, energy drinks, desserts or jams.
This chemical compound is a sequestrant, i.e. a substance that binds metal ions so that these cannot have a harmful effect on the body, and the consumer is protected from the harmful effects of heavy metals in food.
Trisodium citrate is also an emulsifier – it enables a uniform solution to be prepared from two immiscible liquids. It is useful, for example, in the production of cheeses that do not become oily when melted, as it prevents the separation of fats.
Another use of trisodium citrate in the food industry is as a preservative. It protects the fats in the product from oxidation and rancidity. It also prevents colour changes in foods.

Production Process

Sodium tricitrate is produced by neutralizing citric acid with sodium hydroxide. Citric acid may be produced from fruit or other foods through yeast fermentation and solvent extraction. Most large-scale production is done by fermenting molasses or other sugar reserves with Aspergillus niger. The liquid is separated by filtration and the citric acid is separated by precipitation. Sodium citrate is usually marketed as a white, crystalline substance.

 

Indications and Usage

 

Sodium citrate is utilized as an alkalinizing agent to reduce the presence of excessive acid in both urine and blood, mainly used for treating metabolic acidosis. Sodium Citrate and Citric Acid Oral Solution can also help avert gout issues as well as some types of kidney stones, along with dealing with certain kinds of problems due to renal disease. This oral remedy works by making a systemic alkalizer that keeps level-headed pH balance while neutralizing stomach acids too.


It is advised to consume this solution orally following physician’s guidelines, typically four times per day but best taken after meals so that there will be less odds of facing diarrhea or digestive difficulties. Every dose should be stirred into cold water/juice (120-240 ml). After pouring it one ought drink all contents slowly until gone completely from glass.
