Sorbic acid is a new, safe, nontoxic and effective food preservative.
Sorbic acid is unsaturated fatty acid,participate in normal metabolism and be oxidized to water,carbon dioxide,
does not accumulate in the human body and has high safety.
Sorbic acid toxicity is only half of salt, 1/ 40 of sodium benzoate .
Sorbic acid has been used in worldwide and successfully used in the food industry in many ways.
Sorbic acid has obvious inhibition of molds, yeasts and aerobic bacteria, inhibit bacteria.
Sorbic acid combines with sulfhydryl group in microbial enzyme system to destroy the role of enzymes,
so that achieve the purposes of bacteriostasis and antisepsis.
Sorbic acid prevents from growth and breeding of botox, staphylococcus and salmonella,
Under acidic conditions (pH value less than 5-6), the effect of bacteriostasis is better,
and the food composition has no any impact of preservative effect,
So Sorbic acid effectively extends the storage time of food and keep the original flavor of food.
