Application

  • Metabolomic Profiling of an Ultraprocessed Dietary Pattern in a Domiciled Randomized Controlled Crossover Feeding Trial.: The research utilizes EDTA in metabolomic profiling to analyze dietary patterns and their impacts on metabolic health, highlighting the utility of EDTA in biochemical analyses (O′Connor et al., 2023).

  • MIL-101(Fe) based biomass as permeable reactive barrier applied to EK-PRB remediation of antimony contaminated soil.: This paper explores the application of EDTA in environmental biochemistry, particularly in the remediation of antimony-contaminated soils using a novel iron-based biomass barrier (Wang et al., 2023).

  • Proteomic signatures of synergistic interactions in antimicrobials.: EDTA is used to study synergistic effects in antimicrobial treatments through advanced proteomic techniques, underscoring its role in biochemistry and molecular biology research (Zhou et al., 2023).

  • Improved Automated Quantification Algorithm (AQuA) and Its Application to NMR-Based Metabolomics of EDTA-Containing Plasma.: The study focuses on the development of an improved algorithm for quantifying metabolites in EDTA-containing plasma samples, demonstrating the importance of EDTA in biochemical quantification and analysis (Röhnisch et al., 2021).
