Sorbitol
Description
Sorbitol is a new kind of sweenter made from purified glucose as material via hydrogenation refining ,concentrating .When it was absorbed by human body ,it spreads slowly and then oxidizes to fructose ,and takes part in fructose metabolization. It doesn affect blood sugar and uric sugar. Hence, it can be used as sweetener for diabetics. With high-moisture-tatiblizing , acid-resisitance and non-ferment nature ,it can be used as sweetener and monisturizer .
(Sorbitol 70%) is a kind of non-sugar sweetener made from high quality dextrose via hydrogenation and refining. It is less sweet than sucrose and can't be absorbed by some bacteria. It also has the good characteristics of better moisture retention, acid resistance and non-ferment sorbitol liquid sorbitol liquid sorbitol liquid sorbitol liquid sorbitol liquid sorbitol liquid sorbitol liquid
Sorbitol application in the food industry
1. Sorbitol is hygroscopic, so the food by adding sorbitol to prevent dry food, to keep the food fresh and soft. Use in bread and cake, have a demonstrable effect.
2. Sorbitol sweeter than sucrose, and not used by some bacteria, is the producer of confectionery sweetness of good ingredients, but also the production of important raw material for sugar-free candy, processed foods of various anti-caries.
3. Aldehyde-free sorbitol, difficult to be oxidized, and amino acids in the heating does not produce Maillard reaction. Have some biological activity, can prevent the consumption of carotenoids and fat and protein denaturation in condensed milk by adding sorbitol to extend shelf life, can improve the color, flavor and small intestine of the fish meat has significant stability and long-term preservation the role. In the jam preserves also have the same effect.
4. Sorbitol metabolism is not caused by elevated blood sugar, diabetics can be used as a sweetener and food nutrients.
