Product Introduction

Sodium Diacetate (E262(ii)) delivers a two-phase protective mechanism: initial rapid acidification followed by sustained acetic acid vapor release. This dual action penetrates complex matrices, effectively controlling Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Gram-negative bacteria without altering product texture.

Key Features and Benefits:

pH Control: Optimizes acidity (pH 4.5-5.5) to suppress microbial growth

Thermal Stability: Maintains efficacy after baking/processing up to 150°C

Moisture Regulation: Reduces water activity (a<sub>w</sub>) in baked goods

Regulatory Status: FDA GRAS, EU E262(ii), FSIS 9 CFR 424.21

Flavor Synergy: Enhances tanginess in snacks while masking metallic aftertaste

Applications:

Bakery: Extends mold-free shelf life of bread, cakes & tortillas (0.1-0.4%)

Animal Feed: Prevents mycotoxins in silage/pet food (0.2-0.5%)

Seasonings: Antimicrobial carrier for dry soup mixes & seasoning blends

Meat Products: Surface treatment for cooked sausages (≤0.25% USDA limit)

Potato Products: Inhibits Clostridium botulinum in vacuum-packed potatoes

Usage & Dosage:

Direct Addition: 0.1-0.5% in dry mixes; 0.05-0.2% in dough

Surface Treatment: 2-5% aqueous spray for meats/cheeses

Critical Note: Use at pH ≤5.5 for optimal efficacy
