Citric Acid Anhydrous 30-80mesh – Sunshine ThaiLan

Acidulants are substances (organic or inorganic) which release hydrogen and a salt part in water solution. When the concentration of hydrogen ions goes up then the acidity of the whole system is increasing and the pH is decreasing. Human saliva is slightly acid (pH approximately 6.8) and when we consume sour food or drink, our taste receptors interact with the acids present in the food or drink and this sensation is recognized by us as sourness.

Functions of acidulants:

• Flavor enhancement: Impart a tart or sour taste, and can enhance the perceived sweetness of foods.
• Preservation: Lowering the pH of a food product inhibits the growth of many microorganisms, increasing shelf life.
• pH regulation: Used to achieve or maintain a specific pH level for optimal stability or function in products like jellies and jams.
• Leavening: Act as leavening agents in baked goods.
• Other functions: Can act as emulsifiers, antioxidants, and coloring agents.
