Description

Phytic acid is a major phosphorus storage compound of most seeds and cereal grains.


Myo-inositol hexakisphosphate is a myo-inositol hexakisphosphate in which each hydroxy group of myo-inositol is monophosphorylated. It has a role as an iron chelator, an antineoplastic agent, a signalling molecule, an Escherichia coli metabolite, a mouse metabolite and a cofactor. It is a conjugate acid of a myo-inositol hexakisphosphate(12-).|Phytic acid is under investigation in clinical trial NCT01000233 (Value of Oral Phytate (InsP6) in the Prevention of Progression of the Cardiovascular Calcifications).|Complexing agent for removal of traces of heavy metal ions. It acts also as a hypocalcemic agent.

Phytic acid Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Complexing agent for the removal of traces of heavy metal ions (also employed as the sodium salt). It acts also as a hypocalcemic agent. In the food industry, it is used for the preservation and color protection of fruits, vegetables and aquatic products. It is also used as metal anti-rust and anti-corrosion agent. It has anti-oxidation and chelation effect. It can be used for anti-oxidation and chelation of fruit and vegetable products, fruit and vegetable juice beverages, edible oils and meat products. Oxidation, the maximum use amount is 0.2g/kg, and it can also be used for the preservation of prawns. It can be used in appropriate amount according to production needs, and the residual amount is 20mg/kg.
