Maltitol is a new type of functional sweetener. Due to its low-calorie, non-caries, indigestible, calcium absorption and other physiological characteristics, it has a wide range of applications in the food industry and has caused People's widespread attention.

Maltitol is a kind of crystalline powder or colorless liquid obtained by enzymatic liquefaction, saccharification, hydrogenation and refining with high-quality corn starch as raw material. The crystalline maltitol obtained by hydrogenation has the same chemical structure as that found in nature, and can be called a natural and safe functional food ingredient.

Features:

1. Maltitol is easily dissolved in water.

2. Maltitol will not cause Maillard reaction.

3. Maltitol has mild sweetness, no irritation and acidity.

4. Maltitol is not easily used by molds, yeasts and lactic acid bacteria, and can prevent dental caries.

5. Maltitol is difficult to be digested and metabolized in animals and is a good low-energy sweetener.

6. When the human body takes maltitol, the blood sugar will not rise rapidly, and it will not stimulate the secretion of insulin.

7. Maltitol has emulsification stability and can be used as a fat substitute to produce low-calorie foods with the same taste as fat.

8. Maltitol has remarkable hygroscopicity, which can be used as a humectant for various foods, or to prevent the precipitation of sucrose crystals.

9. The role of maltitol in the diet is not only to have low calories, but also to inhibit the storage of fat in the human body when it is eaten with high-fat foods.

Application areas:

As a safe food ingredient, maltitol has been used in various human and animal products. The World Food and Agriculture Organization/World Health Organization, and the Food Additives Professional Committee have recognized its safety, and its daily usage amount is not regulated.

1. Application in functional food

Maltitol is hardly decomposed in the body, so it can be used as a food material for diabetic and obese patients.

2. Used for candy and chocolate production

Because of its good flavor and mouthfeel, maltitol has good moisture retention and non-crystallinity, it can be used to make various candies, including foamed marshmallows, hard candies, and transparent soft candies.

3. Application in fruit juice beverages

Maltitol has a certain consistency and is difficult to ferment. Therefore, when making suspension fruit juice or lactic acid beverages, adding maltitol instead of a part of sugar can make the beverage taste full and smooth.

4. Application in frozen food

The use of maltitol in ice cream can make the product fine and thick, sweet and delicious, and extend the shelf life.

In addition, as a stabilizer of vitamin C, when maltitol is heated together with vitamin C, it can reduce and inhibit the oxidation and decomposition of vitamin C, and it will not darken the color. Maltitol has good fluidity and compression formability, and has the characteristics of hardness proportional to pressure. It is suitable for tableting processing. It has good mixing uniformity with other raw materials and can be used as an excipient for tableting products.

Development prospects

With the increasing awareness of people's health care and the increasingly prominent problems of modern diseases such as obesity and diabetes, the demand for various sugar alcohols with high safety, good taste, no dental caries, and no impact on blood sugar levels will be increasing. Maltitol The research and development, development and application of the company have been paid more and more attention, and the market prospect is very broad.

In addition, maltitol's good taste, low calorie, and high sweetness compared to most other sugar alcohols make it widely used. With the requirements for low-calorie and low-fat products, the demand for maltitol will become wider and wider.
