Sodium ascorbate is a white or slightly yellow, crystalline powder with no significant odor; it is non-volatile, hygroscopic, and highly water-soluble, with a decomposition temperature above 200 °C. It is the sodium salt of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and is classified as an organic chemical—specifically, a water-soluble antioxidant and reducing agent. Industrially, it serves primarily as a food additive (E301) for its antioxidant properties and as a pH-neutral alternative to ascorbic acid in pharmaceutical formulations. Its main application areas include functional foods, dietary supplements, and injectable and oral pharmaceutical products, where it functions as a stabilizer, preservative, and source of bioavailable vitamin C.
L-Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is a water soluble molecule used in a wide variety of applications, including cell culture, as a reducing agent that helps reduce oxidative stress.
