Technological aspects of use of sulfiting agents in food.
A review of the current literature indicates that scientific knowledge of sulfiting agents in food is changing rapidly. Many of the old assumptions about usage of sulfiting agents have been put in doubt by new scientific data. Some basic definitions of sulfiting agents and their chemical behavior in food are presented.
