摘要:
Methods of preparing highly purified steviol glycosides, particularly rebaudiosides A, D and X are described. The method includes expression of UDP-glucosyltransferases from Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, which are capable converting certain steviol glycosides to rebaudiosides A, D and X. The highly purified rebaudiosides A, D and X, are useful as non-caloric sweetener in edible and chewable compositions such as any beverages, confectioneries, bakery products, cookies, and chewing gums.

Exemplary embodiments of this invention encompass a method for purifying a substantially crude stevioside, methods for preparing polymorphic and amorphous forms of stevioside, and the polymorphic and amorphous forms prepared therefrom.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to sweetener compositions comprising non- caloric or low-caloric high-potency sweeteners and methods for making and using them. In particular, the present invention relates to different sweetener compositions comprising at least one non-caloric or low-caloric natural and/or synthetic high-potency sweetener, at least one sweet taste improving composition, and at least one preservative. The present invention also relates to sweetener compositions and methods that can improve the tastes of non-caloric or low-caloric natural and/or synthetic, high-potency sweeteners by imparting a more sugar- like taste or characteristic. In particular, the sweetener compositions and methods provide a more sugar-like temporal profile, including sweetness onset and sweetness linger, and/or a more sugar-like flavor profile.

Exemplary embodiments of this invention encompass a method for purifying crude rebaudioside A. In particular, this invention relates to a method for purifying crude rebaudioside A compositions comprising purities from approximately 40 % to approximately 95 % rebaudioside A to obtain a substantially pure rebaudioside A product with a single crystallization step. Resulting polymorph and amorphous forms of rebaudioside A and methods for preparing polymorph and amorphous forms of rebaudioside A from crude rebaudioside A compositions and substantially pure rebaudioside A compositions also are disclosed.
