Sodium citrate (CAS 68‑04‑2) supplied by Global Optimals in Tashkent meets a purity of ≥ 99 % and appears as a white crystalline powder. This trivalent salt provides a buffering range of pH 7.5‑9.0, making it an excellent regulator of acidity for food and pharmaceutical applications. Chemically, sodium citrate is the sodium salt of citric acid; it dissolves readily in water to form a mildly alkaline solution that can neutralize added acids and maintain a stable pH. In the food sector, beyond its role as a flavor enhancer, emulsifier and preservative in soft drinks, dairy beverages, yogurts and energy drinks, it is also employed in processed cheese, meat marinades, sauces, and confectionery where it chelates calcium ions, preventing unwanted precipitation and supporting smooth texture. When combined with other acidulants such as citric or acetic acid, sodium citrate creates a more robust buffer system, which is valuable for products with long shelf‑life. In pharmaceuticals, sodium citrate serves as an anticoagulant for plasma, stabilizes drug solutions, and acts as a buffer in injectable formulations; it is frequently formulated together with glucose, sodium chloride or other electrolytes to produce isotonic solutions. It is also used in oral tablets to adjust dissolution rates and improve bioavailability of active ingredients. For large‑scale handling, routine checks of moisture content and particle size distribution are recommended to ensure consistent dosing. The product should be stored in a dry, airtight container at 20‑25 °C, protected from moisture, which prevents hydrolysis and formation of unwanted by‑products. Delivery is performed with our own fleet, reaching Tashkent within 24‑48 hours and the rest of Uzbekistan and neighboring countries within 3‑5 days. The minimum order is 5 kg, with volume discounts available. Since 2018, Global Optimals has reliably served over 500 industrial clients across Central Asia. The product complies with GOST R 52172‑2003 and international food additive standards (Food Additive Codex). When dissolved in water it generates a mildly alkaline solution that stabilizes pH around 7.8, extending the shelf life of the final product. For bulk shipments Global Optimals offers on‑site quality control, including moisture and granulometry verification.

To maintain the integrity of sodium citrate, store the material in a dry, well‑ventilated area at ambient temperatures, typically between 15 °C and 25 °C, shielded from direct sunlight and moisture. When the packaging remains intact, the expected shelf life is about 24 months. During handling, wear protective gloves and safety glasses, avoid inhalation of dust and skin contact. Ensure the sealed polyethylene container is undamaged; any breach should be replaced promptly to prevent moisture ingress and degradation of product quality.
