Introduction
Potassium sorbate can effectively inhibit the activity of mold, yeast, and aerobic bacteria, thereby prolonging the shelf life of food and maintaining its original flavor. Potassium sorbate is an acidic preservative that still has good preservative effects in foods close to neutral (pH 6.0-6.5) (not suitable for dairy products). Potassium sorbate is recommended by the International Food and Agriculture Organization and the World Health Organization as an efficient and safe preservative, widely used in industries such as food, beverages, tobacco, pesticides, cosmetics, etc. As an unsaturated acid, it can also be used in the resin, fragrance, and rubber industries.
