Features & Benefits
- Food Ingredients Features
- Physiological Characteristics
- Same sweet and flavor as glucose, can improve the flavor of normal sweet foods and to inhibit odor, to maximum satisfy the people who like sweet but worry about weight control.
- Not utilized by oral microbes, and has part of similar function as dietary fiber.
- Good compatibility with food. When add fewer Xylose into the food, it can show good health care function and same time can raise the absorption of Calcium when assume Xylose together with Calcium, and also prevent constipation.
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Where can we Use Xylose
- To produce Xylitol after hydrogenation.
- Add in feedstuff for pets in some advanced countries.
- The pure crystalline D-Xylose can be the good material instead of sugar to produce flavor agent by its Maillard reaction. Compared with other six carbon sugar, D-Xylose needs fewer reaction time to get different flavors ike roast beef/ pork, cooking meat, chicken, baked potato, baking food and etc through different hydrolyzed protein and amino acid response. The FEMA of US is approved D-Xylose as a safe food additive (GRAS).
- Good high-quality soy sauce color.
- Raw material for essence to meat
- Produce anti-oxidants for food
