|---|---|
| citrated | Containing a citrate; specifically denoting blood serum or milk to which has been added a solution of potassium or sodium citrate, or both. (05 Mar 2000) |
| citrated calcium carbimide | A mixture of two parts citric acid to one part calcium carbimide; in the metabolism of ethanol, it slows the conversion of acetaldehyde to acetate; used in the treatment of alcoholism. (05 Mar 2000) |
