INGREDIENT / 03
Sodium benzoate is the sodium salt of benzoic acid, widely used as a food preservative. Key information is provided below:
1. Food preservation: Sodium benzoate helps extend shelf life by inhibiting susceptible microorganisms, particularly in acidic foods.
2. pH control: Its preservative performance depends strongly on the pH of the formulation.
3. Common applications: Applications include beverages, fruit preparations, jams, sauces and other permitted food categories.
4. Food safety: Use sodium benzoate within the applicable permitted levels and conditions of use.
5. Labelling: Foods containing sodium benzoate must meet applicable ingredient labelling requirements.
6. Alternatives: Alternative preservation strategies depend on the food, processing method and required shelf life; ingredients are not automatically interchangeable.
Sodium benzoate supports food shelf life by controlling susceptible microorganisms. Its use must be matched to the formulation and applicable requirements.
INGREDIENT / 01
Sodium diacetate is a food additive used for preservation and acidity control. Key information is provided below:
1. Food preservation: Sodium diacetate helps extend shelf life by inhibiting susceptible spoilage microorganisms.
2. pH control: It is used to control food acidity, which can influence flavour and shelf life.
3. Formulation role: Sodium diacetate can be used in marinades, sauces and other formulations primarily for preservation and acidity control.
4. Food processing: Sodium diacetate helps maintain shelf life in suitable food applications.
5. Food safety: Use sodium diacetate in accordance with the applicable conditions of use and permitted levels.
6. Application examples: Applications include meat preparations, marinades, pickled foods and other products requiring shelf-life control.
7. Labelling: Foods containing sodium diacetate must be labelled in accordance with applicable ingredient declaration requirements.
Sodium diacetate supports food preservation through microbial and acidity control. Its suitability depends on the food category, formulation and permitted conditions of use.
INGREDIENT / 06
Malic acid is an organic acid occurring naturally in fruit and used in food manufacturing. It contributes acidity and flavour to a variety of products. Examples of its applications are provided below:
Acidity regulation: Malic acid is used to help maintain the required pH in foods.
Flavour balance: Malic acid provides a tart taste and helps balance sweetness; it is not itself a sweetener or sugar substitute.
Pickling and marinating: Malic acid can be used in pickled and marinated foods to adjust acidity.
Pectin-based products: It can help establish the acidity needed in pectin-based jams, preserves and jellies.
Confectionery and baking: Malic acid contributes acidity and flavour in confectionery and selected bakery formulations.
Drinks and infusions: It can be added to beverages to adjust flavour and acidity, sometimes as an alternative to citric acid.
Malic acid has diverse food applications, particularly in acidity and flavour adjustment. The appropriate level depends on the formulation.
INGREDIENT / 04
Fumaric acid is an organic acid used to adjust formulation acidity. Solubility and the order of addition are important when introducing it into a process.
INGREDIENT / 05
Lactic acid is an organic acid used to regulate product acidity. Specify the required concentration and intended use when ordering, as these determine the appropriate grade.
INGREDIENT / 05
Sorbic acid is an organic compound used mainly as a food preservative. It occurs naturally in some berries and is also manufactured commercially. Key information is provided below:
1. Food preservation: Sorbic acid helps extend shelf life by inhibiting susceptible yeasts, moulds and other microorganisms.
2. Protection against spoilage: Its principal food function is antimicrobial preservation rather than acting as a general-purpose antioxidant.
3. Common applications: Applications include fruit preparations, bakery products, dairy products and beverages, where permitted.
4. Food safety: Use sorbic acid within the applicable permitted levels and conditions of use.
5. Labelling: Foods containing sorbic acid must meet applicable ingredient labelling requirements.
6. Alternatives: Alternative preservation strategies may use other permitted ingredients or processing methods, depending on the product.
Sorbic acid supports food quality and shelf life. Its use must comply with the requirements applicable to the food category and formulation.
INGREDIENT / 07
Tartaric acid is an organic acid used to regulate acidity in food processing. Select its parameters to suit the desired flavour profile and manufacturing process.
INGREDIENT / 02
Sodium acetate is the sodium salt of acetic acid, with food, pharmaceutical and chemical applications. Key information is provided below:
1. Acidity regulation: Sodium acetate helps control pH in food formulations.
2. Food preservation: In appropriate formulations, sodium acetate helps control susceptible microorganisms and support shelf life.
3. Food industry: Applications include pickled foods, marinades and selected dairy and meat products.
4. Food ingredient processing: Sodium acetate can be used in food ingredient manufacturing processes, according to the formulation requirements.
5. Pharmaceutical industry: Appropriate grades of sodium acetate are used in medicines and pharmaceutical preparations.
6. Food processing: In foods, its main roles relate to pH control and preservation.
7. Food safety: Use sodium acetate in accordance with applicable conditions and permitted levels.
8. Labelling: Foods containing sodium acetate must meet applicable ingredient labelling requirements.
Sodium acetate has applications from food acidity regulation and preservation to pharmaceutical manufacturing. Grade and intended use determine suitability.
INGREDIENT / 04
Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, widely used as a food preservative. Key information is provided below:
1. Food preservation: Potassium sorbate helps extend shelf life by inhibiting susceptible microorganisms, particularly yeasts and moulds.
2. Fermentation control: It can help prevent unwanted fermentation and spoilage in suitable formulations.
3. Common applications: Applications include jams, fruit drinks, vegetable preparations, bakery products and confectionery, where permitted.
4. Food safety: Use potassium sorbate within the applicable permitted levels and conditions of use.
5. Labelling: Foods containing potassium sorbate must meet applicable ingredient labelling requirements.
6. Alternatives: Alternative preservation approaches depend on the product and required shelf life. Different preservatives are not interchangeable in every application.
Potassium sorbate helps maintain shelf life by controlling unwanted microorganisms. Its use is governed by food category-specific requirements and permitted levels.
