Calcium propionate is a safe and reliable antifungal agent for food and feed approved by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Calcium propionate, like other fats, can be metabolically metabolized by humans and animals and is supplied to humans and livestock for the necessary calcium. This advantage is unparalleled by other antifungal agents and is considered as GRAS.

Soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol. For mold, yeast and bacteria have a broad antibacterial effect, for bread and cakes can play a preservative effect, the lower the pH, the higher the preservative effect. Calcium propionate is almost nontoxic to the human body. Used in cosmetics as antiseptic spikes, the maximum allowable concentration of 2% (as propionic acid).
