Acidulants
Acidifiers are food additives that give foods a sour taste and increase acidity .
-
Adipic acid (E 355)
- Sodium adipate (E 356)
- Potassium adipate (E 357)
-
Malic acid (E 296)
- Potassium malate (E 351)
-
Ascorbic acid (E 300)
- Sodium L- ascorbate (E 301)
- Calcium L ascorbate (E 302)
- Succinic acid (E 363)
-
Acetic acid (E 260)
- Potassium acetate (E 261)
- Sodium acetate (E 262)
- Calcium acetate (E 263)
- Fumaric acid (E 297)
-
Metatartaric acid (E 353)
- Calcium tartrate (E 354)
- Lactic acid (E 270)
-
Phosphoric acid (E 338)
- Sodium phosphate (E 339)
- Potassium phosphate (E 340)
- Calcium phosphate (E 341)
-
Tartaric acid (E 334)
- Sodium tartrate (E 335)
- Seignette salt (sodium-potassium tartrate, E 337)
- Tin (II) chloride (E 512)
-
Citric acid (E 330)
- Sodium citrate (E 331)
- Potassium citrate (E 332)
- Calcium citrate (E 333)
Acidity regulators, on the other hand, should keep the pH value of a food constant.
