Organic acids, their salts, and antioxidants such as ascorbic acid (AA) are widely used in fermented meat products; however, information about their main effects on quality attributes and microbial ecology in sucuk is limited. This study evaluated the main effects of AA levels (0, 500, and 1000\u2009mg\u2009kg\n                      <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) and selected organic acids or salts (acetic, lactic, citric, and sorbic acids, and potassium sorbate; 1000\u2009mg\u2009kg\n                      <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) on sucuk quality and safety.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The pH, moisture, protein, fat content, lipolysis, proteolysis, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values, and color parameters were not affected significantly by treatments (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&gt;\u20090.05), whereas water activity was influenced significantly (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05). Increasing AA levels were associated with higher nitrate concentrations, whereas other anions, cations, and biogenic amine content did not differ among treatments. Higher AA levels, as well as sorbic acid and potassium sorbate treatments, increased shear force, shear work, hardness, and chewiness (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05).
