Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popularity of the plant Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana) has risen due to increasing use and interest in its sweet constituents called steviol glycosides. In recent years, these have been approved all over the world as food additives in the category of sweetener, hence they have received more attention and their use in food formulations has increased significantly. New techniques in growing stevia have resulted in new varieties with interesting steviol glycoside profiles. Also, new techniques to analyse the content of sweeteners in different matrices and the detection of new steviol glycosides with very pleasant sensory profiles has followed. The aim of this book is to present novel uses and manufacturing developments as well as to gather together up-to-date information across the whole developing area of steviol glycosides research.

Download or read book Stevioside written by Sirshendu De and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stevioside is one of the naturally occurring sweeteners, belonging to the diterpene glycoside family, which can be widely applied in food, drinks, medicine and consumer chemicals. It is a good dietary supplement, being non-calorific, thermally stable, non-toxic, with a sugar-like taste profile, and suitable for diabetics, phenylketonuria patients and the obese. It is also non-fermentable, and exhibits anti-carcinogenic, antioxidant and anti-hyperglycemic properties. Stevioside tastes about 300 times sweeter than 0.4% sucrose solution. Thus, it offers a reasonably rare combination of health benefits and taste benefits, making the extraction of stevioside is an area of active research for the food industry as well as academic food scientists.With the rapid increase in the popularity of stevioside as a sugar substitute, particularly with regard to its associated health benefits, there is a need for more efficient and feasible extraction processes for stevioside in the near future. This book offers an in-depth look at perhaps the major “sugar alternative of the future”, up-to-date and in line with the latest global legislation regarding its suitability for consumption and its scope for application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the links between health and food additives come under increasing scrutiny, there is a growing demand for food containing natural rather than synthetic additives and ingredients. Natural food additives, ingredients and flavourings reviews the legislative issues relating to natural food additives and ingredients, the range of natural food additives and ingredients, and their applications in different product sectors. After an exploration of what the term ‘natural’ means in the context of food ingredients, part one focuses on natural food colourings, low-calorie sweeteners and flavour enhancers, followed by a consideration of natural antioxidants and antimicrobials as food ingredients. The book goes on to review clean label starches and proteins, the application of natural hydrocolloids as well as natural aroma chemicals and flavourings from biotechnology and green chemistry. Part two considers specific applications in different products. Natural ingredients in savoury food products, baked goods and alcoholic drinks are examined, as are natural plant extracts in soft drinks and milk-based food ingredients. With is distinguished editors and expert team of international contributors, Natural food additives, ingredients and flavourings is an invaluable reference tool for all those involved in the development and production of foods with fewer synthetic additives and ingredients.

Download or read book Genetic and Environmental Control of Steviol Glycoside Biosynthesis in Stevia Rebaudiana written by Jennifer Marie Evans and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stevia rebaudiana (stevia) is gaining agricultural importance due to its natural production of non-caloric steviol glycosides, which can be extracted and incorporated into natural, zero-calorie sweeteners. Of the several steviol glycosides produced by stevia, those produced in the largest concentrations, such as rebaudioside A, are often criticized by consumers as having a bitter aftertaste. Other glycosides, such as rebaudioside D, are reported to have a superior flavor profile, but are produced in much smaller concentrations. The environmental and genetic control of steviol glycoside synthesis is poorly understood. The objectives of this research were: 1) to determine how daily light integral (DLI) influences glycoside concentrations and relative proportions, particularly for rebaudioside D and 2) to elucidate the genetic control of rebaudioside D synthesis from rebaudioside A. DLI influenced both glycoside concentration and relative proportion in a glycoside-specific manner. Using traditional breeding, populations were created via controlled crosses where parents varied in the percentage of rebaudioside D calculated from the total of rebaudiosides A and D. The production of rebaudioside D appears to be regulated by a single dominant gene controlling the presence/absence of the precursor compound, rebaudioside A. Some of the individual populations in this study exhibited correlations unique to each population regarding traits of interest, demonstrating the variability in stevia. Future breeding efforts could harness this variability in addition to knowledge of precursor glycoside content as a resource to improve future stevia lines.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebaudioside (Reb) D and M are the recent focus of the food industry to address the undesirable aftertaste of Reb A, which is the most commonly used steviol glycoside in natural sweetener stevia. The first study evaluated the sensory characteristics of Reb A, D, and M, compared to 14% (w/v) sucrose, using a consumer panel and explored the relationship between 6-n-Propylthiouracil (PROP) taster status (i.e., non-tasters, medium tasters, supertasters) and the perceived intensity of sweet and bitter tastes of the three steviol glycosides. The results showed that Reb D and M had sensory profiles that were closer to sucrose, compared to Reb A, but were associated with negative sensation, such as artificial, and Reb M was higher in lingering sweetness than sucrose (P
