Thaumatin Cas:53850-34-3
Thaumatin is a white to cream color odorless powder. Sweet and refreshing, no odor, long duration. The sweetness is extremely strong, its sweetness is 1600 times that of sucrose on average, but depends on the concentration of dilution: 5500-8000 times at 0.00011%; 3500 times at 0.001%; 1300 times at 0.01%; 850 times at 0.02%. Its aqueous solution is stable at pH 1.8-10, and its isoelectric point is about pH 11. Because it is a protein, it can be denatured by heating and lose its sweetness, and it will also lose its sweetness when it is combined with tannin. The sweetness is reduced in a highly concentrated salt solution. Highly soluble in water, insoluble in acetone. It has synergistic effect and improves flavor when used with sugar sweeteners.
