Product Overview

Sodium Erythorbate, (CAS 6381-77-7, E316), also known as Sodium Isoascorbate or Iso-VC Sodium, is a white crystalline powder food-grade antioxidant. It effectively slows oxidative deterioration, inhibits enzymatic browning, preserves natural color and maintains freshness of food products. With high solubility, good thermal stability and excellent compatibility with other additives, it is widely used in meat products, seafood, beverages, canned foods and baked goods.

Character

Sodium Erythorbate is easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol. It has strong antioxidant capacity, effectively slows down the oxidation reaction of food, and preserves the original color and flavor of food. It has low reactivity and good compatibility with most food raw materials.

Main Functions

1.Color Retention & Browning Prevention Inhibits enzymatic browning and discoloration, helping meat, seafood, fruits and vegetables maintain natural fresh appearance.

2.Flavor & Aroma Stabilization Protects original flavor and prevents off-flavor formation caused by oxidation during processing and storage.

3.Synergistic Antioxidant Effect Works synergistically with citric acid, phytic acid and other chelating agents to enhance overall antioxidant performance at reduced dosage.

4.Nitrosamine Formation Control (Meat Applications) Helps reduce nitrosamine formation in cured meat products when used together with nitrite, supporting safer cured color development.

Applications

in food: Sodium Erythorbate is widely applied in meat and poultry, seafood, fruit juices, beverages, canned foods, baked goods and condiments. It acts as a food antioxidant to inhibit oxidation, prevent browning and discoloration, preserve original flavor and extend the shelf life of finished food products.

Our Quality

As a professional ingredient supplier, we do not operate manufacturing facilities. Instead, we build robust quality‑assurance workflows across our whole supply chain to safeguard consistent product performance for every shipment

Strict Supplier Due‑Diligence

Before entering any partnership, we carry out on-site factory visits and assess industry reputation, followed by multi-stage qualification reviews. We validate production qualifications, export track records, quality management systems and complete certification packages. New suppliers must pass sample evaluation, and only fully vetted top-tier factories are admitted to our approved supplier pool

Batch‑by‑batch Document Verification

For every order, we cross‑check factory‑issued test documents against agreed specifications including FCC, USP, EP, AJI, CP or your customized requirements. We will not forward documents to customers until key indicators are fully aligned with specifications. This step avoids inconsistent or mismatched documentation common in raw‑material trade.

Independent Third‑party Testing Coordination

Upon client request, we can arrange independent laboratory inspections from recognized third‑party institutions. We manage sample delivery, test protocol communication and report follow‑up to support your market compliance needs.

Quality Closure & Continuous Improvement

We keep traceable records for all delivered batches. If any quality concern arises, we act as your single point‑of‑contact to trace root causes with source factories, drive corrective actions and deliver practical resolution plans. Client feedback is systematically collected to optimize our supplier management and document‑review procedures.

We provide a comprehensive set of compliance documents to support your import and registration work. Our available documentation includes but is not limited to:

★ ISO Certification ★ Halal Certificate

★ Kosher Certificate ★ IP certificate

★ Haccp certificate ★ Allergens with Glutens

★ GRAS Statement ★ HACCP Program

★ BSE/TSE Statement ★ Certificate of Analysis
