Medronic acid

Overview

Medronic acid (Methylenediphosphonic acid) is a methylene-substituted bisphosphonate. Medronic acid has an affinity for the surface of hydroxyapatite crystals in the bone matrix and adheres to them. Medronic acid can be used in complex with radioisotopes in bone imaging. Due to its strong metal chelating ability, medronic acid is also used as a water treatment chemical. In addition, medronic acid is used as a solvent additive to improve peak shape and signal of metal-sensitive metabolites in LC/MS analysis.
