Product Description: EDTA tetrasodium tetrahydrate is a metal chelator (binds to metal divalent and trivalent cations including calcium), which shows activities of anticoagulant and anti-hypercalcemic. EDTA tetrasodium tetrahydrate decreases the metal ion-catalyzed oxidative damage to proteins, and allows maintenance of reducing environment during protein purification. EDTA tetrasodium tetrahydrate can also decrease the formation of disulfide bonds[1][2][3].
