Product Description
Calcium benzoate is a food additive used primarily as a preservative. It is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water. In the food industry, it helps to prevent the growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast, and fungi, thereby extending the shelf life of foods and beverages. Calcium benzoate is commonly used in products like soft drinks, jams, jellies, and fruit juices. It is identified by the E number E213. While it is widely used, the use of calcium benzoate is regulated by food safety authorities to ensure it is used within safe and acceptable limits.
