Information on Calcium DTPA

Calcium Diethylene Triamine Penta Acetic Acid (DTPA) is a synthetic amino acid and a sequestering/chelating agent. It is a white powder that is insoluble in water. It is used to dissolve metallic impurities. DTPA works by grabbing metallic cations like lead or calcium and forming a stable compound that is then excreted from the system. The stability of this bond is vital for removing inorganic impurities.

Synthesis / Manufacturing Process of Calcium DTPA

The compound was prepared by the reaction of Diethylene Triamine (DETA) and Mono chloroacetic acid.
