orthophosphate
Orthophosphate is a type of inorganic compound containing the phosphate ion (PO4^3-). It refers to the salts and esters of phosphoric acid (H3PO4). Because of their ability to readily donate or accept hydrogen ions, orthophosphates often play crucial roles in biological systems, particularly in energy transfer and storage. They are also used in several technical applications, such as water treatment, fertilizers and detergents.
