Food-grade Alpha-cyclodextrin

Food-grade alpha-cyclodextrins are widely used in functional foods as food fiber or as additional material for improving metabolic syndrome. α-cyclodextrin is used in combination with additives such as vitamin E, natural pigments food flavors which can improve the stability of the additive and facilitate long-term storage or maintenance in food.

Product Introduction

Alpha-cyclodextrin is a non-reducing cyclic saccharide comprised of six glucose units linked by alpha-1.4 bonds. It is produced by the action of cyclodextrin glucosyl transferase on hydrolysed starch syrups. The cavity of alpha-cyclodextrin is less than beta-cyclodextrin, so it is used to allow formation of inclusion complexes with little molecules. The solubility degree of Alpha-cyclodextrin in water is 14.5 g/100ml @ 25°C.


Characteristic

1. Low viscosity, no other peculiar smell

General technical performance of dietary fiber has often appeared some problems: high viscosity, bad stability, and the taste of unpopular problems, these problems are often limits the dietary fiber ingredients to add.  Alpha-Cyclodextrin can solves the above questons. Liquid will be a colorless, odorless, and it has a low viscosity, no other peculiar smell.

 

2. Derived from natural

Alpha-Cyclodextrin  is a kind of from natural starch by enzymatic production of six D - pyran ring composed of glucose units oligosaccharides.

 

3. High stability

in hot or acidic conditions, common water soluble dietary fiber is usually unstable, Alpha-Cyclodextrin  in the stability of the high temperature

100-212°C, and PH in 2.4 under the condition of no signs of degradation.


Application

In food field, alpha-cyclodextrin could:

A. Can over and remove peculiar smell;

B. Can improve and enhance food organization structure;

C. Can relieve and remove bitter andastringent;

D. Can anti-oxidation;

E. Can keep and improve relish.

Alpha can improve the stability of additives, prevent and improve diabetes, adjust gastrointestinal function, and improve constipation. Alpha-cyclodextrins are widely used in functional foods as food fiber or as additional material for improving metabolic syndrome.

Scope of application: food field, improve food structure, maintain food flavor, anti-oxidation.
