History & Source- A
colorless, crystalline organic compound belonging to the family of
carboxylic acids, present in practically all plants and in many
animal tissues and fluids. It is one of a series of compounds
involved in the physiological oxidation of fats, proteins, and
carbohydrates to carbon dioxide and water (see (tricarboxylic
acid cycle).
First isolated from lemon juice by a
Swedish chemist, Carl Wilhelm Scheele, in 1784, citric acid is
manufactured by fermentation of cane sugar or molasses in the
presence of a fungus, Aspergillus niger. It is used in
confections and soft drinks (as a flavoring agent), in
metal-cleaning compositions, and in improving the stability of foods
and other organic substances (by suppressing the deleterious action
of dissolved metal salts). |
