QUICK LINKS

Ferrichrome Iron-free is a metalloprotein present in nature. As a member of the ferritin protein family, Ferrichrome Iron-free is primarily located in the cytoplasm of cells. By binding and storing iron in the cytoplasm of cells, Ferrichrome Iron-free ensures iron is maintained in a non-toxic state. It functions as a reservoir for iron, safeguarding against its harmful effects, while also governing the uptake and transportation of iron within the cellular environment.
