Calcium propanoate or calcium propionate has the formula Ca(C2H5COO)2. It is an effective inhibitor of the growth of certain moulds and some bacteria and it is applied as a preservative in dairy products.
As a food additive, it is listed as E number 282 in the Codex Alimentarius. Calcium propanoate is used as a preservative in a wide variety of products, including bread, other baked goods, processed meat, whey, and other dairy products. In agriculture, it is used, amongst other things, to prevent milk fever in cows and as a feed supplement. Calcium propanoate is used in bakery products as a mold inhibitor, typically at 0.1-0.4% (though animal feed may contain up to 1%). It also becomes a source of Calcium in such food products. Mold contamination is considered a serious problem amongst bakers, and conditions commonly found in baking present near-optimal conditions for mold growth. Calcium propionate can be used as a fungicide on fruit.

C6H10CaO4 Formula weight 186.22
INS: 282 CAS 4075-81-4
DESCRIPTION
Calcium Propionate occurs as white crystals or as a crystalline solid. The pH of a 1:10 aqueous solution is between 7.5 and 10.5. One-gram dissolves in about 3 mL of water.
Function: Preservative; mould inhibitor.
REQUIREMENTS
Identification:
A. A 1:20 aqueous solution gives positive tests for Calcium.
B. Upon ignition at a relatively low temperature, a sample yields an alkaline residue that effervesces with acids.
Assay: Not less than 98.0% and not more than 100.5% of C6H10CaO4, calculated on the anhydrous basis.
Fluoride: Not more than 0.003%.
Insoluble Substances: Not more than 0.2%.
Lead: Not more than 2 mg/kg.
Magnesium (as MgO): Passes test (about 0.4%).
Water: Not more than 5.0%.

Barter
They who love thee on this earth, keep calling on thee and chanting thy beads
Lest thou forgetest.
They assign the credit of their hard work to your blessings
They keep you amused.
They come to thy temple with baskets of fruits, as if you were a glutton
They deny the same to their children.
They offer you milk for a bath and burn the ghee
They hardly understand the meaning of it.
They bring gold and diamonds. They come with beating of drums
They love to advertise their offerings.
They offer you a small bribe as advance for booty, called lottery
They love to dream.
I do not bow down at your door
I do not bargain for booty
Your promise of the heaven does not lure me
Your hell-fire does not scare me
I do not even know the proper method of prayer
I do not offer any thing to you
Ages have gone by and I have not seen you my lord
Yet my love for you keeps waiting for you.
