How Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate Is Made

Metal organic acid chelates are made by reacting a metal ion from a soluble metal salt with an organic acid or its salt.
For example, amino acid chelates have generally been made by reacting one or more amino acids, dipeptides, polypeptides, or protein hydrolysate ligands in an aqueous environment.
Under appropriate conditions, this causes an interaction between the metal and amino acids to form amino acid chelates.

Organic acid chelates have been generally been made by producing a reaction by using either amino acids, picolinic, nicotinic acids, or hydroxycarboxylic acids.

Differences between GLDA and EDTA
Demonizing EDTA would be a mistake, but it must be said that some substances commonly used in cosmetics can, as of today, be replaced with more eco-friendly alternatives.
This is the case with EDTA, which has always been used as a chelator, especially in rinse-off products such as shampoos or detergents, because it also has an inherent cleansing action.
Studies, however, show that its metal sequestering action is, especially with regard to the marine ecosystem, very polluting because it allows greater dispersion of heavy metals into sea water, especially when used in everyday detergents.
In skincare cosmetics, the use of EDTAs definitely has a lower environmental impact especially because of their leave-on nature (they do not rinse off).
However, using more eco-friendly alternatives here as well, such as GLDA, is meant to be a support for future generations not to underestimate any aspect related to the environment.
