Description

Potassium ferrocyanide is an inorganic compound, a cyanide salt of Fe(2+). It is known under E code E 535 and is used in the food industry as an anticaking agent (substances that prevent powdered and granulated ingredients from lumping) in salt. Potassium ferrocyanide has low acute toxicity and is not mutagenic or carcinogenic. Its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract is low, and there is no accumulation in human.
