• Uses: Ammonium citrate dibasic is generally used as a component of matrix solution in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry analysis. It can also be used as both the carbon and nitrogen source to synthesize fluorescent nitrogen-doped carbon nanoparticles (CNPs). Determination of phosphates. For the determination of phosphate, especially in fertilizers. Ammonium Citrate, Dibasic is a flavor enhancer and ph control agent. it is the diammonium salt of citric acid, being prepared by partially neutralizing citric acid with ammonia. it is used in nonal- coholic beverages and certain cheeses.
