Description
Sodium erythorbate, also known as sodium isoascorbate, is a water-soluble antioxidant and antiseptic. It is the sodium salt of erythorbic acid and is used as a food additive to prevent oxidative spoilage and maintain the color and flavor of various food products.
Uses
Used in Canned Foods, Jam, and Frozen Fish:
Sodium erythorbate is used as an antioxidant and preservative for canned foods, jam, and frozen fish to control oxidative color and flavor deterioration. The maximum usage amount allowed is 1.0g/kg.
Used in Meat:
Sodium erythorbate is used in meat products as an antioxidant and preservative, with a maximum usage amount of 0.5g/kg (to ascorbic acid equivalents). It helps control and accelerate the nitrite curing reaction, maintaining the color brightness of cured meats such as frankfurters, bologna, and other cured products.
Used in Wine and Fruit Juice Drinks:
Sodium erythorbate is used as an antioxidant in wine and fruit juice drinks to prevent oxidative spoilage. The maximum usage amount allowed is 0.15g/kg.
Used in Beer:
Sodium erythorbate can also be used in beer as an antioxidant, with a maximum usage amount of 0.04g/kg.
Used in Beverages, Baked Goods, and Potato Salad:
Sodium erythorbate is occasionally used as an antioxidant and preservative in beverages, baked goods, and potato salad to maintain their color and flavor.
Identification test
Solubility: it is easily soluble in water; extremely difficult to dissolve in ethanol. It can be measured according to the OT-42 method.
Take 2 ml of 2.0% sample solution; add 2 mL of water, 0.1 g sodium bicarbonate and 0.02 g of ferrous sulfate. Stand after shaking. At this time, it should exhibit dark purple color while addition of 5 mL of dilute sulfuric acid test solution (TS-241) will make the color disappeared.
The burning residue of the sample was dissolved by the water and subject to (TS-2) acidification, and if necessary, subject to filtration. Addition of uranyl zinc acetate test solution (TS-253) should produce yellow crystalline precipitate.
The aqueous solution of the sample allows the discoloration of the 2, 6-dichloroindophenol test solution (TS-84).
Content analysis
0.400 g of the sample pre-dried in a vacuum desiccator (sulfuric acid) for 24 hours was dissolved in a mixed solution consisting of 100 ml of de-carbonated water and 25 ml of dilute sulfuric acid solution (TS-241). Add a few drops of starch solution (TS-235) and immediately titrate with 0.1mol/L iodine solution titration. Each mL of 0.1 mol/L iodine solution was equivalent to 10.807 mg of sodium erythorbate (C6H7O6Na? H2O).
Toxicity
ADI is not subject to any special provision (FAO/WHO, 2001).
LD50} 15.3 g/kg (mouse, orally).
Usage limit
GB 2760-2001 (g/kg): beer 0.04; wine, fruit and vegetable juice drinks, 0.15. Canned fruits and vegetables, canned meat, jam, frozen fish, 1.0 (all based on ascorbic acid).
FAO/WHO (1984): luncheon meat, boiled forelegs, cooked ham, cooked minced meat, 500mg/kg (single usage amount or combined amount with ascorbic acid, ascorbic acid and its salts in ascorbic acid).

Preparation
It is produced through using D-glucose fermentation of Pseudomonas fluorescens Kl005 or Arthrobacter globiformis K1022 to produce 2-keto-D-gluconic acid (or calcium salt), followed by being esterified, transformed and refined. The composition of the fermentation medium is: glucose: 18; yeast extract 0.3; K2HPO4 ? 3H2O: 0.05; KH2PO4: 0.05; MgSO4 ? 7H2O: 0.025,;CaCO:34.5. The fermentation temperature is controlled at 30~35 ℃, the fermentation period is 30h, and the fermentation conversion ratio (%) is 79.9%. The fermentation broth is supplemented with sulfate and activated carbon for acidification and decoloring, followed by pressurized filtrate to obtain the clean liquid with a yield of 96.6%.
The purified fermentation broth was concentrated by decompression, and methanol and sulfuric acid were added for refluxed esterification of 5h, followed by frozen and centrifuged filtering to obtain methyl ester with a yield of 82.1%. The methyl ester was transformed with basic methanol solution under refluxing conditions, and the product was further frozen and crystallized to dryness to obtain the crude product of D-isoascorbic acid. The conversion yield was 87.3%, and it was dissolved in hot water and decolorized with activated carbon. The filtrate is pressurized filtrated and the supernatant liquid is frozen, crystallized, centrifugalized, washed and vacuum dried to obtain finished product.
The mother liquid is recovered and the yield is 88.0%.
Air & Water Reactions

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 6381-77-7 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 6,3,8 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 6381-77:
(6*6)+(5*3)+(4*8)+(3*1)+(2*7)+(1*7)=107
107 % 10 = 7
So 6381-77-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
