| Targets |
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid sodium hydrate targets metal ions, specifically divalent and trivalent metal cations including calcium. As a chelator, it forms stable complexes with metal ions, sequestering them and preventing their participation in biological or chemical reactions. This chelation activity is the basis for its antihypercalcaemic and anticoagulant effects. By binding to metal ions, EDTA sodium hydrate can reduce oxidative damage to proteins catalyzed by metal ions.
