Description

General description

Citric acid monohydrate is an organic acid. Its molar enthalpy of solution in water has been reported to be Δ_solH_m (298.15K, m = 0.0203molkg^-1) = (29061±123)Jmol^-1. It can be produced by crystallization from mother liquor of citric acid solution at 20-25°C during citric acid synthesis. An investigation of its crystal growth kinetics indicates that growth is linearly dependent on size.

Citric acid monohydrate is an organic weak acid used as a natural preservative in food and beverage products.

Application

Citric acid monohydrate was used in the preparation of citric acid solution employed in the acetone method of ⁶⁸Ga pre-purification and radiolabeling technique.
It may be used:

• As release-modifying agent to improve the release of diltiazem hydrochloride from melt extruded Eudragit RS PO tablets.
• To prepare citrate buffer for use in the preparation of platelets for intravital microscopy.
• To prepare Tris-citrate buffer employed for the electrophoresis of bacterial enzymes.
