What is Organic Trehalose Powder?
Organic Trehalose Powder is a naturally occurring disaccharide derived from organic sources like starch. Known for its mild sweetness, excellent stability, and non-reactive nature, it is a versatile ingredient widely used in the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Trehalose offers functional benefits such as moisture retention, antioxidative properties, and protection against protein degradation, making it an ideal choice for various applications.
Production Process:
- Raw Material Selection: High-quality organic starch is used as the base material.
- Enzymatic Conversion: Starch is hydrolyzed using enzymes to produce trehalose.
- Purification: The solution is refined and filtered to remove impurities.
- Crystallization & Drying: Trehalose is crystallized and dried into a stable powder.
- Quality Assurance: Rigorous testing ensures compliance with organic and safety standards.
Key Features:
- Certified Organic: Complies with USDA and EU organic standards.
- Mild Sweetness: Approximately 45% as sweet as sucrose, providing a subtle, non-overpowering flavor.
- Excellent Stability: Resistant to heat and acid, suitable for high-temperature processing.
- Low Hygroscopicity: Prevents moisture absorption, maintaining product quality.
- Antioxidant Properties: Protects cells and biomolecules from oxidative stress.
- Non-GMO & Allergen-Free: Safe for a wide range of dietary needs.
