Organic Acids
Aprofood offers a variety of types of high-quality organic acids that are effective in preventing the growth of bacteria in foods.
Role of Organic Acids
Organic acids are mainly used in food processing to prevent the growth of food impurities and to extend the shelf life of food products. They prevent the growth of microorganisms, thus keeping the food fresh for a longer period of time. Organic acids also increase the acidity of foods and improve their flavor.

- Antioxidant. Organic acids can act as natural antioxidants to prevent the oxidation of fats and oils in foods, extending their shelf life.
- Inhibit browning. Organic acids can inhibit the activity of oxidizing enzymes of phenolic substances in food to avoid browning of fruits and vegetables during processing and storage.
