Sell Grandeur Sodium Erythorbate Antioxidant Preservative best price

Grandeur Sodium Erythorbate Antioxidant Preservative Available in 250g Shelf Life : 2 years It is used as an antioxidant, a preservative and a curing accelerator. Particularly used widely in the production of processed meats to maintain and prolong the "fresh" color and flavor in meat products. It is used in bacons, hams, sausages, bologna, among other cured meats. Sodium erythorbate should always be added when using curing salt (nitrites/nitrates). This is because, when used in sausages, the processing time can be cut down (up to one-third), as the erythorbate accelerates the rate of curing by breaking down the nitrite and speeding up the setting of the pink colour pigment. The antioxidant properties of erythorbate helps prevent rancidity, and prevent colour fading of sliced meats or cold cuts. It is also important to note that erythorbate can reduce the amount of curing salt (nitrites) used in meat products, thereby effectively reducing the formation of nitrosamines-- the carcinogen greatly associated with the consumption of processed meats. Major functions: -Antioxidant: it keeps the food fresh (color, flavor and etc) as sodium erythorbate itself can be oxidized by scavenging oxygen and then inhibiting the oxidation of fruits and vegetables. -Preservative: it prevents microbial growth and therefore extends the shelf life of food. -Curing accelerator: it accelerates the curing process of meat and fish products by speeding up the development of the pink color.
