SODIUM DIHYDROGEN ORTHOPHOSPHATE DIHYDRATE LR
It is used in conjunction with trisodium phosphate in foods and water softening treatment. In foods, it is used to adjust pH. Its presence prevents coagulation in the preparation of condensed milk. Similarly, it is used as an anti-caking additive in powdered products.
Sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate is typically used as a phosphate buffer system component for downstream biomolecule chromatography steps or final liquid formulation.
sodium phosphates are often used as emulsifiers (as in processed cheese), thickening agents, and leavening agents for baked goods. They are also used to control pH of processed foods.
Sodium is an essential mineral in our diet. It is commonly found in the form of sodium chloride (salt). Salt has no smell and it dissolves easily in water and gives water a “salty” taste at levels greater than 180 milligrams per litre.
