Basic Information

Ammonium ferric citrate
brownish-red amorphous powder

Ammonium ferric citrate is an odorless, brownish-red amorphous powder with a slight iron taste. It dissolves readily in water but is insoluble in ethanol, ether and chloroform, and it decomposes on heating rather than showing a simple boiling behavior. Appropriate grades are used as iron-source ingredients in fortified cereals, dairy products, infant foods, beverages and other formulated foods.
