Description:
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.
Glucono delta-lactone (C6H10O6), molecular weight 178.14, is an inner ester of gluconic acid. Commonly named gluconolactone, other synonyms include D-gluconic acid delta-lactone, D-glucono- 1, 5-lactone, and D-delta-gluconolactone. Some of its earliest uses as a food ingredient were as a flavoring (e.g., sherbets) and to reduce fat absorption in doughnuts and cones. Glucono deltalactone tastes sweet initially and has a slightly acid-aftertaste.
Uses:
A lactone (cyclic ester) of D-gluconic acid used as a used as a sequestrant, an acidifier, or a curing, pickling, or leavening agent.
D-glucono-1,5-lactone is the lactone derivative of D-gluconic acid. D-glucono-1,5-lactone is widely used as a food additive to achieve a curing, pickling or leavening effect.
Component of many cleaning cmpds because of the sequestering ability of the gluconate radical which remains active in alk solutions; in the dairy industry to prevent milkstone; in breweries to prevent beerstone; as latent acid catalyst for acid colloid resins, particularly in textile printing; as a coagulant for tofu.
