Sodium Benzoate

Sodium Benzoate

Sodium Benzoate is a widely used antimicrobial food preservative that helps control the growth of yeasts, molds, and certain bacteria, particularly in acidic food systems. It is the sodium salt of benzoic acid and is preferred for its high solubility in water and ease of use.

In food formulations, sodium benzoate is valued for its reliable preservation performance without significantly affecting taste or aroma when used within recommended limits. It is especially effective in beverages and fruit-based products where low pH enhances its antimicrobial action.
