About Citric Acid

Citric Acid is a natural acid that occurs naturally in various citrus fruits like lemon or orange. It is a weak organic tricarboxylic acid and can also be produced artificially. This acid is widely used as an acidifier, as a flavoring and chelating agent. It is an edible acid that is used as a flavoring agent and preservative in food and beverages. This acid is also an excellent chelating agent that binds metals by making them soluble. It is also used in cosmetics and pharmaceutical products.
