Uses and Applications

It is used as an antioxidant, a preservative and a curing accelerator, let's see each function:

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 speed up the development of the pink color.
