In commercial food processing, transglutaminase is used to bond proteins together. Examples of foods made using transglutaminase include imitation crabmeat, and fish balls. It is produced by Streptoverticillium mobaraense fermentation in commercial quantities or extracted from animal blood, and is used in a variety of processes, including the production of processed meat and fish products. Transglutaminase can be used as a binding agent to improve the texture of protein-rich foods such as surimi or ham. 收起 | |
Xylitol | Shandong Longlive Bio-Technology Co., Ltd | Xylitol is a white crystal or crystalline powder, sweet, with a sweetness equivalent to that of sucrose, soluble in water (160g/ml approximately) and slightly soluble in ethanol and methanol, with a melting point of 91℃-96℃, a boiling point of 216℃, and a...展開 Xylitol is a white crystal or crystalline powder, sweet, with a sweetness equivalent to that of sucrose, soluble in water (160g/ml approximately) and slightly soluble in ethanol and methanol, with a melting point of 91℃-96℃, a boiling point of 216℃, and a calorific value of 16.72KJ/g (as the same with glucose). Xylitol is capable of inhibiting corrosion. Long-term retention of Xylitol in mouth can effectively prevent tooth decay. According to such a characteristic, Xylitol is extensively applied in gum confection, chewing gum, candy and chocolate, etc. 收起 | |
