Калиев сорбат Калиевият сорбат е хранителна добавка, която има код Е202 и се отнася към групата на консервантите. Основната му функция е да потиска развитието на плесени и дрожди. Химическата формула на калиевия сорбат е C6H7O2K. Има молекулно тегло 150.22 g/mol. Използва се като консервант в различни хранителни и козметични продукти. Той потиска развитието на много микроби, гъби и плесени. Разрешен е за използване в ЕС. Калиевият сорбат се използва при приготвянето на туршии, сирена, майонези, плодови сокове, колбаси, месни полуфабрикати, при някои подправки като горчица и др. Калиевият сорбат е известен още и като стабилизатор за вино, тъй като дава сорбат(Е200) когато се добави към него. Когато активната ферментация е приключила и виното е преточено, прибавянето на калиев сорбат убива всички останали дрожди, елиминирайки възможността за протичане на по-нататъшна ферментация. Смята се за безопасен и нетоксичен, с допустима дневна доза 12.5 mg/kg. Сорбатът е безвреден от токсикологична гледна точка. Все пак, той би бил мутагенен (предизвикващ генетични мутации), асоцииран с нитрити при отсъствие на достатъчно количество на аскорбат (натриева сол на витамин С). 12.10.2012 МО

Potassium sorbate Potassium sorbate is the potassium salt of sorbic acid, chemical formula CH3CH=CH-CH=CH-CO2K. It is a white salt that is very soluble in water (58.2% at 20 °C). It is primarily used as a food preservative (E number 202).[4] Potassium sorbate is effective in a variety of applications including food, wine, and personal care products. While sorbic acid is naturally occurring in some berries, virtually all of the world's production of sorbic acid, from which potassium sorbate is derived, is manufactured synthetically. Contents Production[edit] Potassium sorbate is produced industrially by neutralizing sorbic acid with potassium hydroxide. The precursor sorbic acid is produced in a two-step process via the condensation of crotonaldehyde and ketene.[5][6][7] Uses[edit] Potassium sorbate is used to inhibit molds and yeasts in many foods, such as cheese, wine, yogurt, dried meats, apple cider, soft drinks and fruit drinks, and baked goods.[8] It is used in the preparation of items such as Sweet maple syrup and milkshakes served by fast food conglomerates such as Mc Donalds. [9] [10] [11] It can also be found in the ingredients list of many dried fruit products. In addition, herbal dietary supplement products generally contain potassium sorbate, which acts to prevent mold and microbes and to increase shelf life. It is used in quantities at which there are no known adverse health effects, over short periods of time.[12] Labeling of this preservative on ingredient statements reads as "potassium sorbate" or "E202". Also, it is used in many personal care products to inhibit the development of microorganisms for shelf stability. Some manufacturers are using this preservative as a replacement for parabens. Tube feeding of potassium sorbate reduces gastric burden of pathogenic bacteria.[13] Also known as "wine stabilizer", potassium sorbate produces sorbic acid when added to wine. It serves two purposes. When active fermentation has ceased and the wine is racked for the final time after clearing, potassium sorbate will render any surviving yeast incapable of multiplying. Yeast living at that moment can continue fermenting any residual sugar into CO2 and alcohol, but when they die no new yeast will be present to cause future fermentation. When a wine is sweetened before bottling, potassium sorbate is used to prevent refermentation when used in conjunction with potassium metabisulfite. It is primarily used with sweet wines, sparkling wines, and some hard ciders but may be added to table wines which exhibit difficulty in maintaining clarity after fining. Some molds (notably some Trichoderma and Penicillium strains) and yeasts are able to detoxify sorbates by decarboxylation, producing piperylene (1,3-pentadiene). The pentadiene manifests as a typical odor of kerosene or petroleum.[14] Toxicology[edit] Potassium sorbate is a skin, eye and respiratory irritant.[15] Although some research implies it has a long-term safety record,[16] in vitro studies have shown that it is both genotoxic and mutagenic to human blood cells. Potassium sorbate is found to be toxic to human DNA in peripheral blood lymphocytes, and hence found that it negatively affects immunity.[17] It is often used with ascorbic acid and iron salts as they increase its effectiveness but this tends to form mutagenic compounds that damage DNA molecules.[18] Regardless, it has not been found to have any carcinogenic effects in rats.[19][20][21] Typical usage rates of potassium sorbate are 0.025% to 0.1% (see sorbic acid), which in a 100 g serving yields intake of 25 mg to 100 mg. Acceptable daily intakes for human is 12.5 mg/kg, or 875 mg daily for an average adult (70 kg), according to FAO/World Health Organization Expert Committee on Food Additives.[12] See also[edit] References[edit] - ^ Merck Index, 11th Edition, 7661. - ^ Potassium sorbate at Sigma-Aldrich - ^ http://chem.sis.nlm.nih.gov/chemidplus/rn/590-00-1 - ^ Nordic Food Additive Database Nordic Working Group on Food Toxicology and Risk Assessment - ^ Erich Lück, Martin Jager and Nico Raczek "Sorbic Acid" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, 2011, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. - ^ patent process for commercial potassium sorbate - ^ CFNP TAP Review - ^ Erich Lück, Martin Jager and Nico Raczek "Sorbic Acid" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim, 2000.doi:10.1002/14356007.a24_507 - ^ "Ingredients - Vanilla Mc Shake".
