EDTA, is a chelating agent with many applications in molecular biology. EDTA is often used in buffers as a metal ion inhibitor to maintain the stability and integrity of biological samples. EDTA binds to metal cations by forming a stable octahedral complex.

Water hardness can be measured using a procedure known as complexometric titration by adding a known concentration of the chelating agent EDTA through a burette to a sample containing an unknown amount of calcium and magnesium ions. EDTA reacts and captures these metal ions creating a larger metal complex.
Diphenylamine is used for control of superficial scald in stored apples Diphenylamine is the organic compound with the formula (C6H5)2NH.
It is a colourless solid, but samples are often yellow due to oxidized impurities. It is a weak base, with a KB of 10 14. With strong acids, it forms the water soluble salt.
Calcium sulfate (or calcium sulphate) is the inorganic compound with the formula CaSO4 and related hydrates. In the form of γ-anhydrite (the anhydrous form), it is used as a desiccant. One particular hydrate is better known as plaster of Paris, and another occurs naturally as the mineral gypsum.
Lead(II) nitrate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Pb(NO3)2. It commonly occurs as a colourless crystal or white powder and, unlike most other lead(II) salts, is soluble in water.
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a common inorganic compound with a large number of uses. It is insoluble in water but soluble in dilute acids and bases. Its melting point is extremely high—1975 ºC, where it also decomposes. ZnO exists in two common crystalline forms: wurtzite and zincblende.
Sodium sulfate anhydrous is a chemical compound with the formula Na2SO4. This compound appears as a white crystalline solid and is highly soluble in water. The anhydrous form indicates that it contains no water molecules in its structure, which is important for certain chemical processes.
Sodium sulfate anhydrous is commonly used in the manufacture of detergents, glass, and textiles, as well as in the chemical industry for various synthesis processes.
