Specifica

Applicazione

1. Food and beverage industry

Provides a mild sweetness (sweetness about 33% of sucrose) and enhances the overall flavor of food, especially fruit and milk flavors. Due to its low calorific value, it is used to produce low sugar, low calorie functional foods and beverages.

2. Pharmaceutical and health products

It is a key starting material or precursor for the synthesis of quercetin, vitamin B2 (riboflavin), and other flavonoid drugs and health products. The active ingredients in many medicinal plants exist in the form of glycosides with L-rhamnose as the sugar group, which itself has some biological activity.

3. Cosmetics and personal care products

They have good moisture absorption and can help the skin retain moisture. Research suggests that it may have the potential to resist glycation, soothe the skin, and enhance skin barrier function.

4. Chemical industry

Used as chiral building blocks for synthesizing various fine chemicals, surfactants, and chiral compounds.

Caratteristiche

1. Low calorie: The human body metabolizes L-rhamnose through a different pathway than regular sugar, producing very low energy.2. Low sweetness: The sweetness is mild, about 1/3 of sucrose, and will not be too sweet or greasy.
3. Good water solubility and stability: easily soluble in water, stable in properties, and easy to add in the formula.
