The approved salts in clued sodium acetate, calcium acetrate, sodium diacetate, and calcium diacetate. It is used as a preservative , acidulant, and flavoring agent in catsup, mayonnaise , and pickles. It can be used in conjunction with leavening agents to release carbon dioxide from sodium bicarbonate.

 

2.Baking Soda A leavening agent with a pH of approximately 8.5 in a 1 percent solution at 25oC. It functions with food grade phosphates (acidic leavening compounds) to release carbon dioxide which expands during the baking process to provide the baked good with increased volume and tender eating qualities. It is also used in dry-mix beverages to obtain carbonation, which results when water is added to the mix containing the sodium bicarbonate and an acid. It is a component of baking powder. It is also termed baking soda, bicarbonate of soda, sodium acid carbonate, and sodium hydrogen carbonate.

It is used as a coagulant in noncooked instant pudding to provide thickening. It functions in cheese to reduce the meltability and fat separation. It is used dispersant in malted milk and chocolate drink powders. It prevents crystal formation in tuna. It is also termed sodium pyrophosphate, tetrasodium diphosphate, and TSPP.

 

48.Titanium Dioxide-A white pigment that disperses in liquids and possesses great opacifying power. The crystalline modifications of titanium dioxide are rutile and anatase , of which only anatase finds use as a color additive.

 

49.Vitamin A - The fat-soluble vitamin A whih is required for new cell growth and prevention of night blindness . There is no appreciable loss by heating or freezing, and it is stable in the absence of air. Sources include liver, fortified margarine, egg, and milk.

Sources include leafy vegetables, cheese, eggs, and milk.

 

51.Vitamin C – a water – soluble vitamin that prevents scurvy, helps maintain the body’s resistance to infection and is essential for healthy bones and teeth. It is the most easily destroyed vitamin and processing is recommended in stainless steel or glass. Storage at below-18oC is recommended. In its dry form it is nonreactive, but in solution it readily reacts with atmospheric oxygen and other oxidizing agents. One part ascorbic acid is equivalent to one part erythorbic acid. It is used as a vitamin supplement in beverages, potato flakes, and breakfast foods; and as a dough conditioning agent to strengthen and condition bread roll doughs. It is also used as an antioxidant to increase shelf life in canned and frozen processed foods. It is used in conjunction with BHA,BHT and propyl gallate to regenerate them following the chemical changes they undergo when they prevent fat rancidity in bologna and other meats. Other forms of ascorbic acid are ISO ascorbic ( erythorbic ) acid, sodium ascorbate, and sodium isoascorbate.

 

52.Vitamin E Fat-soluble vitamin E, which is a light yellow oil readily degradable by heat. As a vitamin, it is essential for normal muscle growth and prevents vitamin A destruction by deterioration. It also functions as an antioxidant. It prevents the oxidation of certain fatty acids and is stable unless the food becomes rancid. Vegetable oils contains a higher concentration of natural antioxidants, including tocopherols, than animal fats and are thus more stable. Tocopherol is obtained from vegetable oils, beans, eggs, and milk. It is also termed alpha-tocopherol.

Economical Benefits
             
IMP , GMP , or Ribonucleotide - in combination with MSG and you can greatly reduce the quantity of MSG required without any sacrifice in flavor enchancement.
               For example, 500g. Nucleotide (2%) and MSG (98%) equals the flavor enhancing properties of 200 g. MSG alone. You can expect a cost reduction of up to 45% versus the cost of MSG alone, depending upon your product formulation.  For all the details, please be free to contact us.
