Our aim is to
review the trend in the past decade about the widely used antimicrobial food
additives, which are the subject of studies, in terms of their functions, usage
areas, acceptability levels, and their effects on human health. This review has
been prepared by examining the articles published in Dergipark between
2006-2016 on antimicrobial food additives. With the working population on the
rise, consumer use of packaged ready-to-eat food products has increased. During
the production, preparation, transport and storage of food products, the use of
food additives has become common in packaged food products in order to extend
the shelf life of foods. Additionally, additives delay the recall of harmful
microorganisms, enhance the taste and improve the color. A strong sentiment
amongst consumers is that food additives directly cause negative effects on
health is driving producers to develop food additives from natural sources
instead of artificial ones.
To date, Researchers continue to study the effect of
additive on human health. Many lists
have been prepared by International Committees on the level of acceptability of
food additives on a daily basis. As a result of these investigations, it was
observed that these levels were frequently changed. Excess consumption of food
additives can cause diseases such as allergy, asthma, hyperactivity and cancer.
For this reason, it is important to pay attention to the doses of harmlessness
specified by the International Commissions and not to consume more than the
maximum recommended allowance.
