| Roles Classification |
|---|
| Chemical Roles: | 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. chelator A ligand with two or more separate binding sites that can bind to a single metallic central atom, forming a chelate. 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. antimicrobial agent A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans. fundamental metabolite Any metabolite produced by all living cells. |
| 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. |
