Determination of Additives - Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Analysis

Food additives are natural or artificial substances added to food in small quantities to perform certain functions. They are generally added to foods to prevent food spoilage and preserve freshness, to aid in the processing or preparation of food, to enhance the flavor or appearance of food, or to improve or preserve nutritional value.

Determination of Additives - Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Analysis

The main reason for using food additives is to keep food fresh and of good quality. Without food additives, the shelf life will not be long and the food will deteriorate rapidly and may even pose a health hazard. Some additives are required to form the product, such as carbon dioxide to give gas in carbonated beverages or leavening agents to provide rise in cakes.

Food additives must be used in accordance with applicable legal regulations and domestic and foreign standards.

Carbon dioxide ( E290) is used in foods to alter or maintain their acidity or alkalinity, to create gas bubbles in some foods, or to prevent the growth of harmful and undesirable microorganisms. It is also used as a propellant to protect against and prevent unwanted chemical reactions.
