Description
Technical & Manufacturing Relevance:
Recognized as a highly bioavailable iron source, especially in diets high in phytates and fibers
Chelation with EDTA protects iron from interaction with food components, improving intestinal absorption
Widely used in food fortification programs, nutraceutical supplements, and public health interventions
Exhibits excellent stability in dry blends, premixes, and fortified foods
Minimal impact on taste, color, and oxidative stability compared to ferrous salts
Particularly effective for iron-deficiency anemia control in staple food fortification
Applicable Dosage Forms:
Tablets and capsules
Powders, granules, and sachets
Dry syrups
Multivitamin–mineral premixes
Fortified foods (flour, rice, salt, cereals)
Nutritional supplements and public health formulations
Pharmacopoeial / Quality Notes:
Complies with or aligned to USP / EP / BP / IP / FCC / FAO–WHO (JECFA) specifications
Yellow to brownish-yellow crystalline powder
Freely soluble in water; insoluble in alcohol
High stability over a wide pH range
Manufactured in GMP-certified facilities with strict batch traceability and analytical control
Animal-Origin Declaration:
100% non-animal origin
Free from BSE/TSE, GMO, and allergen risks
Manufacturing Support:
Supplied with COA, SDS/MSDS, TDS, specification sheet, assay method, and origin declaration
Technical support for iron equivalence calculations, fortification level design, and formulation compatibility
Regulatory and documentation support available for global resale, export, and international distribution
Suitable for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and large-scale food-fortification manufacturing worldwide, subject to local regulatory approvals
Important Note:
Sodium iron EDTA is one of the most effective iron fortificants for populations consuming high-phytate diets. Usage levels must strictly comply with country-specific iron RDA, UL limits, and food fortification regulations for safe global distribution.
