Citric acid is naturally found in citrus fruits, giving citrus fruits their tart flavour. Commercially it is produced using microbial fermentation of a carbohydrate substrate. It is the most widely used organic acid and pH-control agent in foods and beverages. Citric acid anhydrous occurs as colourless crystals or as white, crystalline powder with a strongly acidic taste. It is extremely soluble in water, freely soluble in ethanol (96%) and sparingly soluble in ether.
