Product Description | ||
Thaumatin alias: African arrowroot sweetener, samatin English name: Thaumatin, is a super-sweet substance extracted from the nut skin of the natural plant Thaurnatocuccus danielli, which is a natural protein. White to cream color amorphous odorless powder. Sweet and refreshing, no odor, long lasting. The sweetness is extremely strong, and its sweetness is on average 1600 times that of sucrose, but it depends on the concentration of dilution: 5500~8000 times at 0.00011: 3500 times at 0.001, 1300 times at 0.01, and 850 times at 0.02. Its aqueous solution is stable at pH 1.8~10, and its isoelectric point is about pH 11. Because it is a protein, it can be denatured and lose its sweetness when heated, and it will also lose its sweetness when combined with tannins. The sweetness is reduced in high-concentration salt solutions. Very soluble in water. It has a synergistic effect and improves flavor when used with sugar sweeteners. | ||
