摘要:
A clear Reb D solution is prepared by adding Reb D powder to water and heating to completely dissolve the Reb D powder, or by extracting Reb D from stevia plant using hot/boiling water or water/ethanol, wherein the temperature of the clear Reb D solution is above 70° C. Ideally, the clear Reb D solution is mixed with a solubilizing enhancer, wherein the temperature of the enhanced Reb D solution is maintained above 70° C., and wherein the solubilizing enhancer is a hydroxyl-containing sweetener. A stabilizer is then added to the Reb D solution to produce a stabilized Reb D solution; wherein the stabilizer comprises a thickener or anti-agglomeration agent. The stabilized Reb D solution is spray dried to form a powder. The solubility of Rebaudioside D is enhanced in water-based fluids, in particular in beverage concentrates and syrups 1.
摘要:
The invention provides methods of purifying rebaudioside A from a mixture comprising glycosides of the plant Stevia rebaudiana. The methods of the invention are useful for preparing highly pure rebaudioside A compositions from crude Stevia starting compositions that are typically considerably lower in rebaudioside A concentration. The highly pure rebaudioside A compositions are useful as non-caloric sweeteners in edible or chewable compositions such as food, beverages, medicine, candy, chewing gum, and the like.
摘要:
Plants, and methods of generating plants, having an increased content of rebaudioside D and other desirable characteristics are disclosed. Rebaudioside D (rebD) has been observed to have desirable sweetening properties, and accordingly, it has been desirable to produce Stevia plant lines, cultivars, and varieties with defined glycoside profiles where rebD is increased in content, either on a total weight basis of Stevia leaves, relative to other glycosides (e.g., rebA, or stevioside), or both.
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.
摘要:
A sweetening composition comprises: (a) stevia, and (b) a compound according to formula (I) wherein the compound according to formula (I) is present in an amount of at least 0.0001%, by weight based on the total weight of the sweetening composition The compound attenuates the liquorice taste associated with stevia.
摘要:
The invention describes a stevia sweetener with improved solubility in an aqueous solution for convenience of use in the food and beverage industry.
