Application
Characterstics: Fructose is white crystallized powder,sweet taste,tasting twice as sweet ae sucrose,and tastes particularly sweet when cold or in solution,it is sweetest glucide.
Crystalline Fructose is a processed sweetener derived from corn that is almost entirely fructose. It consists of at least 98% pure fructose, any remainder being water and trace minerals. It is used as a sweetener in the likes of beverages and yogurts, where it substitutes for high-fructose corn syrup(HFCS) and table sugar. Crystalline fructose is estimated to be about 20 percent sweeter than table sugar,and 5% sweeter than HFCS.
Food industry: fructose replaces sucrose in canned fruit and fruit preserves together with 20-30% maltose syrup,also it is can be used in carbonated beverages as only sweetener or in combination sucrose and with artificial sweeter such as saccharin.
