Glucoco-Delta-Lactone (GDL) for beverages.

Glucoco-Delta-Lactone (GDL )for beverages.

Glucono-Delta-Lactone (GDL) is a naturally-derived food grade product. Glucono Delta Lactone is characterized as a carbohydrate, but functions as a food grade acidulant and chelating agent. The unique characteristcs are due to lactone formation. In an aqueous solution there is an equilibrium between gluconic acid and the delta and gamma lactones. This change in molecular form contributes to its unique function. Due to its slow hydrolysis to gluconic acid (which takes place gradually over the forty to sixty minutes after dissolution), it provides a gradual, progressive and continuous decrease of pH to equilibrium.

GDL Application.

Glucono-Delta-Lactone (GDL) FCC is a white, crystalline powder or granule which is essentially odorless.  The functionality of Glucono-Delta-Lactone (GDL) to help prevent microbial growth is primarily due to the decrease in pH and the ability to chelate. In addition, the multiple hydroxyl groups on the GDL molecule can attract water and perhaps limit water activity.  It is freely soluble in water and sparingly soluble in alcohol. Used as acids, leavening agent and sequestrant.  Glucono-Delta-Lactone can be used as nutritional supplement in beverage such as in Instant Drinks, Syrups, RTD Tea and Coffee, Sports and Energy Drinks, Waters
