A number of salts of EDTA are available with uses identical or similar to the acid. The U.S.P. salts are called edetates (calcium disodium, disodium edetates); others are usually abbreviated to EDTA (tetrasodium, trisodium EDTA). Other salts, known chiefly under trademarked names, are the sodium ferric, dihydrogen ferrous, and a range of disodium salts with magnesium, divalent cobalt, manganese, copper, zinc and nickel. 1, record 7, English, - salt%20of%20EDTA
