General description

Sodium chloride is an ionic compound that comprises 1:1 ratio of sodium and chloride ions. It is also known as table salt, common salt, or halite. It is used as a raw material for the production of many chemicals which include, sodium carbonate, sodium hydrogen carbonate, and sodium dihydrogen phosphate.

Application


  • Sodium alginate edible coating containing Ferulago angulata (Schlecht.) Boiss essential oil, nisin, and NaCl: Its impact on microbial, chemical, and sensorial properties of refrigerated chicken breast.: This study investigates the use of sodium chloride in sodium alginate edible coatings, focusing on its effects on the microbial, chemical, and sensorial properties of refrigerated chicken breast (Panahi & Mohsenzadeh, 2022).

  • Physicochemical stability of PF-06439535 (bevacizumab-bvzr; Zirabev), a bevacizumab biosimilar, under extended in-use conditions.: The research investigates the physicochemical stability of a bevacizumab biosimilar, highlighting the role of sodium chloride in maintaining stability under extended in-use conditions (Weiser et al., 2023).
