Use:

As a preservative in foods

Sodium benzoate is widely used as a food preservative to process foods and beverages to extend shelf life . Sodium benzoate inhibits the growth of potentially harmful bacteria, mold, and other microbes in food, thus deterring spoilage. It’s particularly effective in acidic foods .

In pharmaceuticals

Sodium benzoate can also be used in pharmaceutical products for its antimicrobial properties, such as in the formulation of tablets, capsules, and cough syrup.
