Sodium chlorite can be combined with citric acid for antimicrobial treatment. This treatment can be used on meats, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables. It can be applied in food and water treatments to kill various microbial and parasites without eliminating healthy bacteria needed by our digestive system.
Dosage and directions
Sodium chlorite is a powerful oxidizer which makes make it a useful pesticide and herbicide. Sodium chlorite plays a very important role to deactivate many types of poisons by interacting with them and changing their chemical composition due to its powerful oxidizing powers.
It is helpful in bleaching various types of materials, such as wood, oils, and other textile products.

Availability
Sodium chlorite is also used for various industrial applications. It controls microbial contamination in industrial cooling systems and towers. It is used in place of chlorine in industrial ammonia plants because it does not react negatively with ammonia. Since it is an oxidizer, it is often a part of flue gas scrubber systems. Food-processing companies use it for washing fruits and vegetables because it is a fungicide. Meat and poultry are also washed with a solution, as is food processing equipment. Finally, it is an anti-mildew agent in detergent compositions and has been used in toothpaste and contact lens solutions.
