Toxicological data

2. Toxicology data:

1. Acute toxicity: Rat oral LD50: 4220 mg/kg; Mouse oral LD50: 3360 mg/kg.

2. Reproductive toxicity: Rat abdominal TDLo: 40 mg/kg

4. Alkaline agent: leavening agent. It is often formulated with ammonium bicarbonate as a leavening agent for biscuits and pastries. The addition amount in wheat flour is 20g./kg. It can be used with citric acid, tartaric acid, etc. to prepare a foaming agent for solid refreshing beverages (generating CO₂). Because it is a harmless weak alkaline agent, adding about 0.1% to 0.2% when washing vegetables can stabilize the green color. When used alone, it becomes strongly alkaline due to decomposition by heat. When used in bread, it will turn yellow and destroy the vitamins in wheat. It is best to use it in combination with acidic substances such as calcium hydrogen phosphate. It can also be used for blanching food and removing astringency. Because it can increase the pH value, it can improve the water holding capacity of protein, promote the softening of food tissue cells, and promote the dissolution of astringent components. It has a mutton-removing effect on goat milk (dosage 10-20mg/kg).

5. Used as acidity regulator and chemical leavening agent. Our country stipulates that it can be used in various foods that require the addition of leavening agents, and should be used in appropriate amounts according to production needs.

6. Injectable carbon-base balance medicine. It is used in food, medicine, film, tanning, mineral processing, metallurgy, fiber, rubber and other industries. It can also be used as detergent and fire extinguishing agent. 7. This product is used as a foaming agent for rubber and plastic phenolic resins, and as an assistant foaming agent for polyvinyl chloride and polystyrene. In the food industry, it is used as a starter culture, a carbon dioxide generator in soft drinks and cold drinks, and a preservative for butter. This product can be directly used as raw material in the pharmaceutical industry as well as wool detergent and foam fire extinguishing agent. It can also be used in film production, tanning, mineral processing, metallurgy, metal heat treatment and agricultural seed soaking agents.
8. It has the functions of dissolving mucus, strengthening the stomach, suppressing acidity and increasing appetite. Absorbed into the body of livestock and poultry, it can supplement the sodium needed by the body and is beneficial to the health of livestock and poultry. Sodium bicarbonate is added as an additive to the feed of livestock and poultry, which can improve feed utilization and energy conversion rate, promote the growth of livestock and poultry, and increase the production of meat, eggs, and milk. Adding 0.1% to 0.5% sodium bicarbonate to chicken feed can effectively reduce heat stress. However, sodium bicarbonate can be incompatible with a variety of anti-heat stress feed additives (such as citric acid, ammonium chloride, aspirin, etc.), causing itself, the other party, or both parties to lose the anti-heat stress effect. Therefore, when using sodium bicarbonate in summer, it should be carefully combined with other anti-heat stress feed additives. Adding sodium bicarbonate to pig feed can increase feed utilization by 8% to 10%, and can also make up for the lack of lysine content in the feed. Dissolving sodium bicarbonate in a small amount of water or mixing it into concentrate and feeding it to cattle (adding it in appropriate amounts) can promote the growth of cattle and significantly increase the milk production of dairy cows. Sodium bicarbonate can be used to prevent and treat metabolic acidosis. It also has the functions of neutralizing gastric acid, strengthening the stomach, and nourishing the stomach. Acidosis can be relieved by intravenous injection of 5% sodium bicarbonate injection. Sodium bicarbonate can also be used to treat visceral diseases in chickens. 9.Used as alkaline agent and leavening agent. It is often formulated with ammonium bicarbonate as a leavening agent for biscuits and pastries.
