Sodium hydrogen sulfite
It is used in food processing as sanitising agent for food containers and fermentation equipment, preservative to reduce or prevent microbial spoilage, selective inhibitor of undesirable microorganisms in the fermentation industries, and as an antioxidant and inhibitor of enzyme-catalysed oxidative discoloration and non-enzymic browning. Sodium bisulfite (sodium hydrogen sulfite) is a chemical compound with the chemical formula NaHSO3. Sodium bisulfite is a food additive with E number E222. This salt of bisulfite can be prepared by bubbling sulfur dioxide in a solution of sodium carbonate in water. Sodium bisulfite in contact with chlorine bleach (aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite) will release harmful fumes. It is used in food processing as sanitising agent for food containers and fermentation equipment, preservative to reduce or prevent microbial spoilage, selective inhibitor of undesirable microorganisms in the fermentation industries, and as an antioxidant and inhibitor of enzyme-catalysed oxidative discoloration and non-enzymic browning
