Preservatives prevent food spoilage from bacteria, molds, fungi, or yeast (antimicrobials); slow or prevent changes in color, flavor, or texture and delay rancidity (antioxidants); maintain freshness.
Preservatives may be antimicrobial preservatives, which inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, or antioxidants such as oxygen absorbers, which inhibit the oxidation of food constituents.
Range of preservatives includes:
Ascorbic Acid
Citric Acid
Sodium Benzoate
Sodium Nitrate
Benzoic Acid
Ascorbic Acid
Ascorbic acid that is a sugar acid with antioxidant properties and appears as white to light-yellow crystals or powder. Soluble in water, ascorbic acid was also called hexuronic acid by some researchers, during its discovery in the 1920s. Vitamin C is the common name for the Lenantiomer of ascorbic acid and this name is derived from the alpha privative a- (meaning no) and scorbuticus (scurvy), the disease caused by a deficiency of vitamin C.
