Erythritol CAS#149-32-6
Erythritol is a zero-calorie, palatable bulk sweetener ideal for a wide range of sugar-free and low-calorie foods and beverages. A natural component of the human diet for millennia, it is present in fruits and various other food sources. Boasting high digestive tolerance, erythritol does not elicit a glycemic response—rendering it suitable for individuals with diabetes—while also not contributing to tooth decay.

Erythritol CAS#149-32-6 Application
Erythritol, a polyol-type sweetener, is produced via the fermentation of glucose. This glucose-concentrated substrate is derived from the enzymatic hydrolysis of starch. Boasting 60–70% of the sweetness of sugar, it offers exceptional stability against heat and acid, along with high digestive tolerance and a low caloric content of just 0.2 kcal per gram. Uniquely among polyols, it is manufactured through fermentation processes. As a sugar substitute, it finds application in a range of products including confections, drinks, and sweet treats.
