Preservatives
Preservation aims to prevent the development of rancid, moldy or otherwise unconsumable food.
Preservatives allow people to safely consume food products that are not in season or locally available.
Methods of food preservation are many and varied.

Curing Salt, spices, sugar, vinegar or sodium nitrite are
added, sometimes used in combination with smoking
End products usually very salty

Drying
Lack of water inhibits microbial activity Methods
Sun drying Hot air drying Freeze drying

Canning
Used for a wide variety of foods. Cans are vacuum-pumped, heated and cooled Affects color, texture, flavor and nutrient content

Refrigeration
Low-temperature storage slows many of the enzymatic reactions and the growth of microorganisms

Controlled Atmosphere Storage
Chemical composition of surrounding gasses is changed.
Controls the process of ripening

Aseptic Packaging
Package and food sterilized separately. Hydrogen peroxide used instead of heat

Irradiation
Food is exposed to gamma or X rays Only a limited amount of irradiated food has
been sold

Fermentation
Microorganisms added to facilitate process

Pasteurization
Invented by Louis Pasteur Involves the heating of foods to kill microbes
![Page 12: Food Preservatives and Dyes Carl Schroedl. Preservatives Preservation aims to prevent the development of rancid, moldy or otherwise unconsumable food.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062314/56649eab5503460f94bb18d1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Additives Chemicals are added during processing to
improve the looks, taste, nutritive content, and apparent freshness.

BHA/BHTbutylated hydroxyanisole
Used to preserve fatty foods, chewing gum, baked goods, dry breakfast cereals and cosmetic products. BHA content may not exceed 0.02% of the total fat content of foods.
In clinical studies, BHA caused cancer in the forestomach of certain animals.

Nitrates/Nitrite Some epidemiological studies have linked
nitrate-contaminated drinking water and stomach cancer.
Nitrate or nitrite exposure during pregnancy may adversely effect the unborn child.
Sodium nitrite may promote the growth of nitrosamines
Types Sodium nitrate Potassium nitrate Ammonium nitrate

Reporting Adverse Reactions
The FDA’s Adverse Reaction Monitoring System collects and acts on complaints concerning all food ingredients including preservatives. If you experience an adverse reaction from eating a food that contains sulfites, describe the circumstances and your reaction to the FDA district office in your area (see local phone directory) and send your report in writing to:
Adverse Reaction Monitoring System (HFS-636)200 C St., S.W.Washington, DC 20204
