Sorbic Acid

Sorbic Acid and its salts are antimicrobial agents often used as preservatives in food and drinks to prevent the growth of mould, yeast, and fungi. Because of their physiological inertness, effectiveness and neutral taste, Sorbic Acid and its salts have become the leading preservatives in the food sector throughout the world over the past 30 years. The most commonly used products are Sorbic Acid itself and Potassium Sorbate.
