Preservatives Sorbic Acid

Yeast & Mold Control

Sorbic Acid is primarily used to control yeast and mold growth in permitted food formulations.

PH Consideration

Its preservative activity is influenced by the pH of the finished food. The permitted use level should be established according to the specific food category and target market.
