Erythorbic Acid, formerly known as Isoascorbic Acid and D-araboascorbic acid, is a stereoisomer of ascorbic acid (Vitamin C).It is a vegetable-derived food additive produced from sucrose. It is denoted by E number E315, and is widely used as an antioxidant in processed foods.
Since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration banned the use of sulfites as a preservative in foods intended to be eaten fresh (such as salad bar ingredients), the use of erythorbic acid as a food preservative has increased. It is also used as a preservative in cured meats and frozen vegetables.
