They can be [[organic acid|organic]] or [[mineral acid|mineral]] [[acid]]s, [[base (chemistry)|bases]], [[neutralization|neutralizing]] agents, or [[buffering agent]]s. Acidity regulators are indicated by their [[E-number]], such as E260 (acetic acid), or simply listed as "[[food acid]]". Commonly used acidity regulators are citric, acetic and lactic acids. == See also == * [[E number]] * [[Acetic acid]] * [[Citric acid]] * [[adipate]] == External links == * [http://www.food-info.net/uk/index.htm E-numbers on Food-Info.net] * [http://www2.iq.usp.br/docente/gutz/Curtipot_.html Quality control - free spreadsheet for titration of acids and bases, pH calculation and distribution diagram generation] {{ingredient-stub}} [[Category:Food acidity regulators| ]] [[de:Säureregulator]] [[fr:Régulateur alimentaire de pH]] [[it:Regolatore di acidità]] [[lt:Rūgštingumą reguliuojanti medžiaga]] [[pt:Regulador de acidez]] [[fi:Happamuudensäätöaine]] [[sv:Surhetsreglerande medel]] [[zh:酸度调节剂]]
