| Roles Classification |
|---|
| Chemical Roles: | chelator A ligand with two or more separate binding sites that can bind to a single metallic central atom, forming a chelate. food acidity regulator A food additive that is used to change or otherwise control the acidity or alkalinity of foods. They may be acids, bases, neutralising agents or buffering agents. calcium chelator A chelator that is any compound containing a ligand (typically organic) which is able to form a bond to a central calcium atom at two or more points. Bronsted acid A molecular entity capable of donating a hydron to an acceptor (Brønsted base). |
| Biological Roles: | food acidity regulator A food additive that is used to change or otherwise control the acidity or alkalinity of foods. They may be acids, bases, neutralising agents or buffering agents. fundamental metabolite Any metabolite produced by all living cells. antimicrobial agent A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans. |
| Application: | food acidity regulator A food additive that is used to change or otherwise control the acidity or alkalinity of foods. They may be acids, bases, neutralising agents or buffering agents. |
