Quote: A.1, 'The addition of sodium nitrite and potassium nitrate in Annex VI is before 31 Dezember 2006/2007 re-examined, is investigated in the light of the state of science and technology development, how come for the processing of meat products from organic alternative technical methods into question, providing adequate hygiene and safety while preserving the characteristics of the product, . will thus limit the use of these additives or prevented 'This significant questions have been formulated with respect to their answers as a basis for discussion on the admission of nitrite and nitrate beyond 2006 from the anticipated cited research commissioned raises two fundamental questions. What is crucial the use of nitrite and nitrate (collectively referred to as curing agents) for consumer acceptance (color and pickle flavor)? If it appears from the non-use of nitrite and nitrate problems in terms of microbiological quality and safety? to answer these questions, studies at several levels , namely in terms of consumer acceptance, the microbiological safety and the supply structure and the technological alternatives.
