As a base conjugated to a weak acid, citrate can be exploited as a buffering agent or acidity regulator, resistant to pH changes. Trisodium Citrate appears in the form of a white crystalline anhydrous powder with either a slightly sweet or salty undertaste.

Alternative names: E331 (III), trisodium dicitratobasic, trisodium salt of citric acid, Na3C6H5O7.
