L-Tartaric acid (diammonium)

L-Tartaric acid diammonium (L- (+) -tartaric acid) is an orally active weak organic acid that can be isolated from grapes. L-Tartaric acid diammonium has vasodilatory and antihypertensive effects. L-Tartaric acid diammonium can be used as flavorings and antioxidants in a range of foods and beverages. L-Tartaric acid diammonium can be used in laser frequency doubling and optical limiting applications[1][2][3][4].
