Adipate (-OOC-(CH2)4-COO-) is the ionized form of adipic acid. Adipic acid is the common name of 1,6-hexanedioic acid, a chemical compound of the class of carboxylic acids. ...
As food additives, adipates are used as acidity regulators. Examples are sodium adipate (E356) and potassium adipate (E357). Food additives are substances added to food to preserve it or improve its flavor and appearance. ... Acidity regulators, or pH control agents, are food additives added to change or maintain pH (acidity or basicity). ... For the mathematical constant see: E (mathematical constant). ...

Di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate is rapidly and completely absorbed after oral administration, rapidly and extensively metabolized and rapidly excreted in humans and experimental animals.
The species differences in carcinogenicity assays of di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (increased hepatocellular tumours in mice, not rats) are consistent with a higher intake of di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate and a greater extent of peroxisome proliferation and associated responses in livers of mice compared with rats fed the same dietary doses.
Di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate was not mutagenic to either Photobacterium phosphoreum or Salmonella typhimurium in the presence or absence of exogenous metabolic activation.
