Sorbic acid is a naturally occurring preservative that is used less in food compared to its potassium salt - potassium sorbate (E202) due to the slight solubility in water.
This ingredient can be used in low water content food such as baked goods, cheese, dried fruits, meat and fatty media.
It is generally used to inhibit the growth of molds (also mycotoxin-forming molds), yeast and some bacteria.
The European food additive number for it is E200.
