Gluconic Acid CAS:526-95-4 Manufacturer Supplier
Gluconic acid (also known as gluconate) is an organic compound occurring widely in nature arising from the glucose oxidation. It is naturally found in fruit, honey and wine. It can also be used as a food additive to regulate acidity and a cleaning agent in alkaline solution. Its calcium salt, calcium gluconate can be used to treat burns from hydrofluoric acid and avoid necrosis of deep tissues as well as treating the verapamil poisoning and hypocalcemia in hospitalized patient. Some salts of gluconate can also be used to treat malaria (quinidine gluconate) and anemia (ferrous gluconate). In microbiology, gluconate is a common carbon source that can be supplemented to the medium for cell growth.

Propyl Gallate CAS:121-79-9 Manufacturer Supplier
Propyl gallate (also known as propyl 3, 4, 5-trihydroxybenoate) is a kind of ester formed through the condensation of gallic acid and propanol. It appears as a fine white to creamy-white crystalline powder. It has long been used as a kind of antioxidants to be supplied to foods especially animal fats and vegetable oil, being especially effective with polyunsaturated fats. Propyl gallate, as an anti-oxidant, can protect the food and oils from the attack of hydrogen peroxide and oxygen free radicals, having an effect similar to the superoxide dismutase. It can also be applied to ethers, emulsion, waxes, and transformer oil as the antioxidants.

Glucono-Delta Lactone (GDL) CAS:90-80-2 Manufacturer Supplier
Delta-Gluconolactone (GDL) is a lactone of the D-gluconate. It is a natural constituent of many foods. It can be found in honey, fruit juices, wine and many-fermented products1-3. It is used as a food additive with the E number E575 used as a sequestrant, an acidifier (it lower the pH and also help preserve the food from deterioration by enzymes and organisms), or a curing, pickling, or leavening agent. GDL has been marketed for use in feta cheese. GDL is neutral, but hydrolyses in water to gluconic acid that is acidic, adding a tangy taste to foods, though it has roughly a third of the sourness of citric acid. It can be used as nutritional supplement in beverage such as in Instant Drinks, Syrups, RTD Tea and Coffee, Sports and Energy Drinks, Waters.
