Definitions

• the present disclosure relates to methods for preparing concentrated natural acetate food additives from vinegar as well as compositions containing the concentrated naturally-derived acetate in proportions effective to achieve desired pH for increased water binding and antimicrobial purposes.
• Food additives are defined by the Food and Drug Administration as any substance used to provide a technical effect in foods. Due to increased production of prepared and processed foods, the use of food additives has become more widespread in recent years. Before a food additive may be added to food, its safety is assessed by the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
• FSIS Food Safety and Inspection Service
• a product containing no artificial ingredient or added color and is only minimally processed may be labeled as "natural".
• the label must explain the use of the term "natural”.
• food additives are produced or derived other than naturally and subsequently added to food, they must be declared as such. For instance, if acetic acid, found naturally in vinegar, is added to a food, it must be declared as acetic acid on the label. However, if the acetic acid is derived from vinegar, it may be listed on the label as "vinegar” modified by source, rather than the chemical name.
• the FSIS lists certain additives, such as sodium acetate and potassium acetate, as a safe and suitable ingredient for use in foods.
• various acetates are commonly used as buffers in controlling the pH of food items during various stages of processing as well as for the finished consumable product.
• Acetates are also considered as excellent agents for buffering mineral acids, as well as cosmetics.
• certain mixtures of acetates may act as flavor enhancers.
• various acetates may be used as antimicrobial agents to increase the shelf-life of meats, fishes, and poultry.
