Lactic Acid USP Grade
Propanoic acid, 2-hydroxy-. Lactic acid [50-21-5].

Lactic Acid is a mixture of lactic acid (C3H6O3) and lactic acid lactate (C6H10O5) equivalent to a total of not less than 88.0 percent and not more than 92.0 percent, by weight, of C3H6O3. It is obtained by the lactic fermentation of sugars or is prepared synthetically. Lactic Acid obtained by fermentation of sugars is levorotatory, while that prepared synthetically is racemic. [NOTE—Lactic Acid prepared by fermentation becomes dextrorotatory on dilution, which hydrolyzes L-( )-lactic acid lactate to L-(+)-lactic acid.]

Identification: It meets the requirements of the test for Lactate.
Specific rotation: between 0.05 and +0.05 , for racemic Lactic Acid.
Readily carbonizable substances: Rinse a test tube with sulfuric acid, and allow to drain for 10 minutes. Add 5 mL of sulfuric acid to the test tube, carefully overlay it with 5 mL of Lactic Acid, and maintain the tube at a temperature of 15 : no dark color develops at the interface of the two acids within 15 minutes.
Residue on ignition: not more than 3 mg, from a 5-mL portion (0.05%).
Sugars: To 10 mL of hot alkaline cupric tartrate add 5 drops of Lactic Acid: no red precipitate is formed.
Chloride: To 10 mL of a solution (1 in 100) acidified with nitric acid add a few drops of silver nitrate: no opalescence is produced immediately.
Sulfate: To 10 mL of a solution (1 in 100) add 2 drops of hydrochloric acid and 1 mL of barium chloride: no turbidity is produced.
Heavy metals: 0.001%.
Limit of citric, oxalic, phosphoric, or tartaric acid: To 10 mL of a solution (1 in 10) add 40 mL of calcium hydroxide, and boil for 2 minutes: no turbidity is produced.

Lactic Acid FCC Food Grade

C3H6O3 -- Formula wt 90.08
INS: 270 CAS: L(+)-Lactic Acid [79-33-4]
CAS: DL-Lactic Acid [598-82-3]

DESCRIPTION
Lactic Acid occurs as a colorless or yellow, syrupy liquid consisting of a mixture of lactic acid (C3H6O3) and lactic acid lactate (C6H10O5). It is obtained by the lactic fermentation of
sugars or is prepared synthetically. It is usually available in solutions containing the equivalent of from 50% to 90% lactic acid. It is hygroscopic, and when concentrated by boiling, the acid condenses to form lactic acid lactate, 2-(lactoyloxy)propanoic acid, that on dilution and heating, hydrolyzes to Lactic Acid. It is miscible with water and with alcohol.

REQUIREMENTS
Identification: A sample gives positive tests for Lactate.
Assay: Not less than 95.0% and not more than 105.0% of the labeled concentration of C3H6O3.
Chloride: Not more than 0.1%.
Citric, Oxalic, Phosphoric, or Tartaric Acid: Passes test.
Cyanide: Not more than 5 mg/kg.
Iron: Not more than 10 mg/kg.
Lead: Not more than 0.5 mg/kg.
Residue on Ignition: Not more than 0.1%.
Sugars: Passes test.
Sulfate: Not more than 0.25%.
