Calcium propionate is generally used as a food preservative in bread. It has also been reported to reduce milk fever in dairy cows. The industrial production of Calcium propionate and sodium propionate is carried out by the neutralization of propionic acid with the corresponding hydroxides and subsequent spraydrying of the concentrated aqueous solutions. As a food additive, it is listed as E number 282 in the Codex Alimentarius. Calcium propionate is a source of energy and calcium for alleviating negative energy balance and hypocalcemia. It is used as a preservative in a wide variety of products, including but not limited to bread, other baked goods, processed meat, whey, and other dairy products.

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by ingestion. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.

Thirty-two multiparous Holstein cows after calving were randomly allocated to control (CON), low calcium propionate (LCaP), medium calcium propionate (MCaP) and high calcium propionate (HCaP) groups. The dairy cows in the four groups were given oral drench with 0, 200, 350, 500 g/d calcium propionate per cow, respectively, from calving to d 35 in early lactation.
