EDTA, Disodium Salt, Dihydrate is an extensively used chelator of divalent cations such as Ca2+. EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is a chelating agent, a general chemical, and a sequestrant. In molecular biology applications, it is used to minimize metal ion contaminants. Also, it can facilitate enzymatic reactions that could be inhibited by heavy metal traces. On the other hand, it can inhibit enzymes, such as metalloproteases, that require divalent cations for activity.
