G D Saraiva et al.
Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy, 137, 1409-1416 (2014-10-14)
This work reports a temperature-dependent vibrational spectroscopic study of the sorbic acid (C6H8O2), as well as the mode assignment at ambient conditions, based on the density functional theory. Temperature-dependent vibrational properties have been performed in polycrystalline sorbic acid through both

Roczniki Panstwowego Zakladu Higieny, 41(5-6), 217-222 (1990-01-01)
Conditions of simultaneous determination of benzoic and sorbic acid in orange drink and tomato concentrate by gas chromatography method were developed and tested. Preservatives were isolated by extraction of the samples with diethyl ether in acidic media, and then converted
Malcolm Stratford et al.
International journal of food microbiology, 181, 40-47 (2014-05-13)
The food spoilage yeast Zygosaccharomyces bailii shows great resistance to weak-acid preservatives, including sorbic acid (2, 4-hexadienoic acid). That extreme resistance was shown to be due to population heterogeneity, with a small sub-population of cells resistant to a variety of

Food additives and contaminants, 7(5), 695-709 (1990-09-01)
In common with many other carboxylic acids, sorbic acid shows significant solubility in aqueous and non-aqueous solvents. The presence of a non-aqueous phase (e.g. fat) can markedly affect the concentration of the preservative in the aqueous phase. Solute distribution between
