    Re: Control of C. botulinum in cooked, chilled and vacuum packed surimi-based fish cakes.

    What options would a US processor have for chemical additives to control the growth of C bot. ?

    Sodium nitrite? At what minimum concentration?
    Potassium sorbate? At what minimum concentration?
    Anything else?

    I would appreciate any help and literature citations. Thank you.
