E202 - Potassium sorbate EFSA overexposure risk: highPreservative
E202 - Potassium sorbate EFSA overexposure risk: highPreservative
Potassium sorbate (E202) is a synthetic food preservative commonly used to extend the shelf life of various food products.
It works by inhibiting the growth of molds, yeast, and some bacteria, preventing spoilage. When added to foods, it helps maintain their freshness and quality.
Some studies have shown that when combined with nitrites, potassium sorbate have genotoxic activity in vitro. However, potassium sorbate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by regulatory authorities.
Environment
Green-Score, origins bonus, and transportation impact are shown for Worldwide .
Green Score
Overall grade
Moderate environmental impactAbout Green-Score
The Green-Score is an experimental score that summarizes the environmental impacts of food products.
Current scope
The Green-Score was initially developed for France and it is being extended to other European countries.
The Green-Score formula is subject to change as it is regularly improved to make it more precise and better suited to each country.
Select a country to include the full impact of transportation in the final score.
