Citric Acid is a tricarboxylic acid found in citrus fruits. Citric acid is used as an excipient in pharmaceutical preparations due to its antioxidant properties. It maintains stability of active ingredients and is used as a preservative. It is also used as an acidulant to control pH and acts as an anticoagulant by chelating calcium in blood.

Paprika oleoresin is an oil-soluble extract from the fruits of Capsicum annuum or Capsicum frutescens, primarily used as a coloring and/or flavoring agent in food products.

E306 corresponds to vitamin E of natural origin. It is a fat-soluble antioxidant. It mainly preserves fats, coloring materials and vitamins from alteration by oxygen.

Sodium propionate (E281) is a sodium salt of propionic acid, a carboxylic acid. It is used as a food additive in the food industry, primarily as a preservative agent to inhibit the growth of molds and yeasts, thereby extending the shelf life of food products.

Spice oleoresin is a concentrated extract of spices that is used as a flavoring agent in the food industry.

Sodium lactate is the sodium salt of lactic acid, which is an organic acid produced naturally in human metabolism.

This is the sodium salt of acetic acid (E260). The latter is one of the oldest food preservatives.

Sodium ascorbate is a potent antioxidant; it is widely used in the food industry for food preservation.

Potassium sorbate (E202) is a potassium salt of sorbic acid. It is commonly used as a food preservative to inhibit the growth of molds and yeasts, thereby helping to extend the shelf life of foods.

Calcium propionate (E282) is a calcium salt of propionic acid. It is used as a food additive in the food industry for its antifungal and antibacterial properties, thereby helping to extend the shelf life of food products.

Sodium nitrite is used in the food industry, primarily as a food additive for its preservation and color-enhancing properties.

Lactic acid is utilized in the food industry as an additive (E270) serving as an antioxidant, acidifier, or flavor enhancer. It also exists in the form of salts: sodium salt (E325), potassium salt (E326), and calcium salt (E327). These salts are in powder form and are water-soluble. Lactic acid acts as a bacteriostatic agent, particularly against pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella or Listeria, and also has a water activity-depressing effect.

Lactic acid is an organic compound, naturally forming in muscles during intense exercise to produce energy. It is also present in wine, dairy products, and certain vegetables after fermentation.
