The objective of this project is to study
the effect of Potassium bisulphite as a food
preservative under various conditions.

Growth of microorganisms in a food material can be inhibited by adding
certain chemical substances. However the chemical substances should not be
harmful to human beings. Such chemical substances which are added to food
materials to prevent their spoilage are known as chemical preservatives.
In our country, two chemical preservatives which are permitted for use are:
Benzoic acid or its sodium salt, sodium benzoate is commonly used for the
preservation of food materials. For the preservation of fruits, fruit juices,
squashes and jams sodium benzoate is used as preservative because it
is soluble in water and hence easily mixes with the food product.

(C)Effect of temperature: –
1. Take 100 gm of Jam in three bottles lebelled as I,
II and III.
2. Add 10.0 gm of sugar and 2.0 gm of KHSO3 to
bottle No. I, II and III respectively.
3. Mix the contents thoroughly with a stirring rod.
4. Keep bottle No. I in the refrigerator at 0˚C,
bottle No. II at room temperature (25˚C) and
bottle No. III in a thermostat at 50˚C. Observe
the changes taking place in the jam for 10 days.
RECORD:
(D)Effect of time: –
1. Take three bottles and label them as I, II and III.
2. To each bottle add 25 g of Jam and 1 g of
potassium bisulphite.
3. Keep bottle I for 7 days, bottle II for 14 days and
bottle III for 21 days at room temperature.
4. Note the changes taking place in each bottle and
record the observations.
RECORD:
jam deteriorates.
