Used
Calcium propionate is a commonly used food preservative that inhibits the growth of mold and bacteria in baked goods such as bread, pastries, and cakes. It works by interfering with the metabolism of these microorganisms, preventing them from breaking down the starches and sugars in the dough.
In addition to its use as a preservative, calcium propionate is also used as a supplement in animal feed to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria in the digestive tract of livestock, particularly in poultry and swine.
Calcium propionate may also be used in some pharmaceutical formulations as an antimicrobial agent, although its use in this application is less common than in the food and feed industries.
In addition to its uses in the food, feed, and pharmaceutical industries, calcium propionate has a few other applications:
In the production of rubber: Calcium propionate can be used as a vulcanization activator and anti-aging agent in the production of rubber products.
In the manufacture of plastics: Calcium propionate is sometimes used as a mold inhibitor in the production of certain types of plastic products.
In the preservation of leather: Calcium propionate can be applied to animal hides during processing to prevent the growth of mold and bacteria.
In the control of fouling in water systems: Calcium propionate can be used to control biological fouling and corrosion in cooling water systems.
