PHYTIN Usage And Synthesis
| Chemical Properties | C12H30Ca5MgO54P12 |
| Uses | A calcium salt form of phytic acid (P398700), the principal storage form of phosphorus in many plant tissues, especially bran and seeds. It has antioxidant effect as well as neuroprotective effect by chelating iron. |
| Agricultural Uses | Phytin is a major organic phosphorus compound in seedsand is the source of phosphorus for new seedlings, tillthey start absorbing it from the soil. The phosphorusreserve in seeds is the calcium/magnesium salts ofinositol hexaphosphoric acid (phytic acid). It is used as afertilizer since it can advantageously be absorbed byplants, and is found in the soil as a product of thedegradation of organic matter. Inositol phosphate is thought to be of microbial originand can exist in several stereoisomeric forms; phosphateesters of myo-, scyllo-, neo- and chrio-inositol have beencharacterized in soil. Myo-inositol hexaphosphoric acid(phytic acid), is usually a major pool oforganic phosphorus, which is fairly stable in an alkalinemedium but which gradually hydrolyzes (optimum pH4.0) to a range of intermediate inositol phosphates, andfinally, to inositol in acidic media. Enzyme phylase alsohydrolyzes myo-inositol phosphates. Myo-inositolphosphates account for between less than 1 and 62% ofthe total soil phosphorus. |
