EFFECTS OF AND RESISTANCE TO
WEAK ACIDS IN SPOILAGE YEASTS
Some weak acids:
E 200 sorbic acid 200 - 2000 mg Kg-1
E 210 benzoic acid 150 - 500 mg Kg-1
E 220 SO2 15 - 2000 mg Kg-1
E 260 acetic acid “quantum satis”
E 280 propionic acid 1000 - 3000 mg Kg-1

EFFECTS OF WEAK ACIDS
- Intracellular acidification
- Inhibition of glycolytic enzymes
- Decrease of fermentation activity
- ATP depletion
- Growth inhibition
- Enhancement of thermal death
