Citric acid is a weak organic acid found in citrus fruits.<\/p>\n

It is a natural preservative and is also used to add an acidic (sour) taste to foods and soft drinks.<\/p>\n

In biochemistry, it is important as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle and therefore occurs in the metabolism of almost all living things.<\/p>\n

It also serves as an environmentally benign cleaning agent and acts as an antioxidant.<\/p>\n

Citric acid exists in a variety of fruits and vegetables, but it is most concentrated in lemons and limes, where it can comprise as much as 8 percent of the dry weight of the fruit.<\/p>\n
