Applications of Disodium Edetate Dihydrate (CAS No. 6381-92-6)

Biopharmaceutical Applications

Our Disodium EDTA 2- hydrate, low in endotoxins and RNase, has various functions inside biopharmaceutical processing:

Preservative and Stabilizer: EDTA acts as a preservative by chelating metal ions that may otherwise catalyze the oxidation or degradation of desired products in biopharmaceutical formulations. This helps you extending the shelf life of your biopharmaceutical products.
Metal Ion Control: Biopharmaceutical processes involve metal-dependent enzymes or reactions. Disodium EDTA can be used to control the concentration of metal ions in these processes.
Buffering Agent: It serves as a buffer, regulating solution pH to maintain the desired pH range, thus ensuring the stability and efficacy of the biopharmaceutical product.

Pharmaceutical Applications

In pharmaceutical formulations, Disodium EDTA 2-hydrate is widely used to stabilize active ingredients and improve product shelf life. It binds metal ions that could otherwise catalyze oxidation or discoloration, ensuring formulation integrity.
Key applications include:

Injectable and ophthalmic preparations: Maintains clarity, prevents oxidation, and enhances preservative efficacy.
Topical and oral formulations: Improves stability of active ingredients in creams, gels, and liquid preparations.
Antibiotic and vitamin formulations: Prevents degradation of sensitive compounds and ensures consistent potency.
