Part Descriptions
LP99342-5 Sulfites
Sulfites (also sulphites) are compounds that contain the sulfite ion SO2−3 (additive IUPAC name: trioxidosulfate(2−)). The sulfite ion is the conjugate base of sulfurous acid. Although the acid itself is elusive, its salts are widely used.
Sulfites are used in increasing amounts as a food preservative or enhancer. They may come in various forms, such as: sulfur dioxide, potassium bisulfite or potassium, metabisulfite, sodium bisulfite, sodium metabisulfite or sodium sulfite.
Sulfites are counted among the top nine food allergens, but a reaction to sulfite is not a true allergy. It may cause breathing difficulty within minutes after eating a food containing it, or migraines. Asthmatics and possibly people with salicylate sensitivity (or aspirin sensitivity) are at an elevated risk for reaction to sulfites. The reaction can, but not often, be fatal, and the individual must immediately go to the emergency room. Other symptoms include sneezing, swelling of the throat, and hives.

- Change Reason
- Release 2.77: SCALE_TYP: Updated the Scale back to Ord as these were inadvertently set to SemiQn during the 2.75 release when we added SemiQn.; Previous Releases: The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
