- Dextrins are also known as pyrodextrins. By heat treatment of starch in presence of acid, dextrins are manufactured. Dextrins are graded on the basis of servity of heat and acid treatment. They are widely used due to its excellent adhesive and water solubility properties

- Dextrose anhydrous is also known as “Anhydrous dextrose” or “Corn sugar anhydrous” or “Anhydrous sugar”. It is a simple carbohydrate that is directly absorbed into the blood. It is purified and crystallized D-glucose and the total solids content is not less than 98.0 percent m/m. It has a glycemic index of 100%. It is a colorless, odorless white powder that…

- Dextrose Monohydrate is moderate in sweetness. It is 65-70% as sweet as sucrose and has a solution, which is much less viscous than Liquid Glucose. DMH is freely soluble in water at room temperature and also in boiling alcohol. The perceived sweetness can be increased to the level of sucrose in some Dextrose/Sucrose blends. Dextrose has a greater depression of…

- High-maltose corn syrup is a food additive used as a sweetener and preservative. The majority of sugar maltose. It is less sweet than high-fructose corn syrup and contains little to no fructose. It is sweet enough to be useful as a sweetener in commercial food production, however. To be given the label “high”, the syrup must contain at least 50%…

- The partial hydrolysis of starch slurry by acid or enzyme gives an end product, which is commonly known as Liquid Glucose (Sweetose), Corn Syrup or Glucose. Chemically, Liquid Glucose is a mixture of the entire spectrum of carbohydrate molecules derived by breaking the long chained molecules of polysaccharides contained in starch slurry. By adjusting the content of the ingredients, Liquid…

- The diverse uses of starch make it a very versatile product. Maize or Corn Starch is a typical cereal starch with distinctly low protein and ash contents. Its carbohydrate content of high purity makes it useful in several industries. Some of these industries include: the textile, paper, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Features and benefits of starch Starch occurs in nature…

- Maltodextrin is a complex carbohydrate although it has a relatively high Glycemic Index meaning it is rapidly absorbed by the body in a manner similar to Dextrose. As it is easily absorbed by the body, it provides a rapid increase in energy levels as it raises blood sugar levels and restores glycogen quickly after consumption. Maltodextrin is a popular carbohydrate…

- Sorbitol, a polyol (sugar alcohol), is a bulk sweetener found in numerous food products. In addition to providing sweetness, it is an excellent humectant and texturizing agent. Sorbitol is about 60 percent as sweet as sucrose with one-third fewer calories. It has a smooth mouthfeel with a sweet, cool and pleasant taste. It is non-cariogenic and may be useful to…
