Chelating agents
What are Chelating agents
Chelating agents are chemical compounds (usually organic compounds) that form complexes with metal ions or other substrates. They are also called chelators or sequestering agents. The chelating agent has a ring like center, which forms a complex with the metal ion/substrate by two or more bindings and the metal ion is bound and excreted.
Chelating agents can be used to treat metal poisoning and they may be used for other purposes.
