Potassium sorbate appears as colorless or white crystals or crystalline powder. Odorless or slightly smelly, it easily absorbs moisture, is oxidized and decomposed and changes color when exposed to the air for a long time. Easily soluble in water, propylene glycol and ethanol. Potassium sorbate and sorbic acid are commonly used organic preservatives and are widely used in the preservative of food, chemical products, and feed. It is easily absorbed and metabolized by the human body, has no residue in the body, and is non-toxic.
Potassium sorbate can effectively inhibit the activity of molds, aerobic bacteria and yeast, and can also prevent the reproduction of microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella, but is ineffective against anaerobic spore bacteria and Lactobacillus acidophilus and other microorganisms. , the growth-inhibiting effect is stronger than its bactericidal effect, thereby achieving the purpose of extending the food preservation time while maintaining the original flavor of the food.
