Method Description
Benzoic acid and its sodium salt are widely used preservatives that inhibit the growth of bacteria, yeasts, and molds in acidic foods and beverages. Testing is necessary to ensure preservative levels remain within regulatory limits while providing adequate protection against spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. The analysis verifies that preservative concentrations are sufficient for product stability without exceeding maximum permitted levels.
