Sodium metabisulfiet is a chemical that is frequently used in various industries, including the food industry, the pharmaceutical industry and the water treatment industry. It is also referred to as sodium pyrosulfite or E223. In the food industry, sodium metabisulfite is mainly used as a preservative and antioxidant. It helps to inhibit the growth of bacteria and fungi, which extends the shelf life of foods. It is often added to products such as wine, beer, dried fruit, fruit juices, jam, sauces and canned vegetables. Moreover, it is used to maintain the color and taste of foods, especially when processing fish and shellfish. In the pharmaceutical industry, sodium metabisulfite is used as a stabilizer and antioxidant in various medicines. It helps to maintain the effectiveness and shelf life of medicines by preventing oxidation. In addition, sodium metabisulfia is also used in water treatment to neutralize chlorine. It is added to swimming pools and spas to reduce the chlorine scent and prevent irritation to the eyes and skin. Although sodium metabisulfry has many advantages, it is important to observe the safety instructions when handling and using them. It can cause allergic reactions in people who are sensitive to sulfites. These reactions range from mild symptoms such as skin rash, itching and breathing problems to severe reactions such as anaphylactic shock. People with asthma or sulphite sensitivity must be extra careful when consuming foods containing sodium metabisulfite. In addition, sodium metabisulfia can release sulfur dioxide in contact with acids, such as vinegar or citric acid. This can cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. It is therefore important to wear protective clothing, gloves and safety glasses when handling sodium metabisulfry. It must also be kept out of the reach of children and stored in a cool, dry place. In short, sodium metabisulfry is a versatile chemical that is used as a preservative, antioxidant and chlorine neutralizer. It has various applications in the food industry, pharmaceutical industry and water treatment. However, it is important to observe the safety instructions when using them, in particular for people with sulphite sensitivity.
