What is fructose?
Fructose is one of the most common hexose sugars. It is found in honey and fruits, and combines with glucose to form sugar for daily consumption. \x0d\\\\x0d\\fructose Uses:\x0d\fructose is widely used in the production of food, medicine and health products. Some developed countries basically do not use sucrose but fructose in candy and beverages. There is also the production of fructose injection, the use of fructose injection abroad than the domestic earlier than about ten years, as a new generation of insulin-independent high-energy nutritional infusion, fructose injection in the world pharmaceutical market performance is very active, in some countries has become the second largest injections second only to glucose. \x0d\\\\x0d\\ Fructose Vc Tablet is a nutritional product with Fructose, Vitamin C as the main ingredient, and Vitamin A,D,E, trace elements can be added according to the need. Fructose Vc tablets have the same potency as glucose Vc tablets.Vc can be used for people with low immunity, colds, frequent inflammation and bleeding gums. People with aging, dull, yellowish skin, pigmented spots, sun spots, who want to whiten their skin. \x0d\\\\x0d\\\ medicinal excipients: medicinal syrups, glucose in the sugar cytosol of tablets can be changed to crystallized fructose for diabetic patients, patients with chronic liver disease and so on. \x0d\\\x0d\\\alphaHydrogenated products: the addition of fructose to alcohol-containing products can bring into play the many effects of fructose. Fructose is absorbed and metabolized rapidly, which can make up for alcoholic hypoglycemia in time. The metabolic process of fructose has a short path, low energy consumption, does not produce lactic acid, and can still be metabolized in the absence of oxygen in the liver, so the burden on the liver is light. Fructose can promote the decomposition of alcohol in the body, inhibit protein consumption, and reduce the residence time of acetaldehyde, the most toxic intermediate product. Fructose can also reduce the hypoxic damage of alcohol on liver cells, reduce the death of hypoxic liver cells, and restore the metabolic ability of liver cells in time after the elimination of hypoxia. In short, the detoxification effect of fructose is mainly in liver protection and maintenance of normal blood sugar levels. \x0d\\\\x0d\\ in fruit wines, medicinal wines, sparkling wines, medicinal syrups, fruit juice drinks, jams, canned fruits, candied fruits, hard candies, hard bakery products, fructose can be used as a 100% replacement of sucrose. In ice-cream, ice-cream, soft candy, soft bakery products, it can be partially replaced, the replacement amount is 10-50%. \x0d\\\\x0d\\fructose increases sweetness at low temperatures and has a low freezing point and good control of ice crystal formation. Therefore, fructose syrup is more suitable for ice cream, ice-cream and other frozen foods. Popsicles and ice cream produced with fructose syrup have a clear flavor. \x0d\\\\x0d\\ low calorie beverages: using fructose in synergy with other sweeteners, low calorie value beverages can be formulated. By using less or no sucrose, the calorific value of the beverage is lower without compromising on flavor. \x0d\\\\x0d\\\solid powdered food: apply crystalline fructose as sweetener, add it to powdered food with instant solubility requirement, such as cornflakes, cereals, which can give play to the advantages of crystalline fructose's high sweetness, solubility and good taste. \x0d\\\\x0d\\ in bread, you can use fructose syrup to replace part of the sucrose, fructose fermentability, coloring and moisturizing properties are played as advantages. Bread is a food that is fermented using yeast, which uses fructose and glucose to ferment the fastest, followed by maltose and sucrose. When fructose or glucose syrup is used instead of sucrose, the fermentation reaction is fast and good, and a large amount of gas is produced, shortening the bread fermentation time. Due to the high gas production, the bread is fluffy, soft and slightly moist, and like with sucrose, the bread has good strength and structure. Since fructose and glucose are prone to Meladic reaction with amino acids in the dough during baking, a layer of fructose syrup or a mixed solution of crystallized fructose-sucrose can be applied to the surface of the bread. This bread is easy to color, the surface layer produces a layer of burnt umber, beautiful and good flavor. As fructose moisturizing good, so the bread can be stored for a longer period of time to maintain fresh and fluffy, 7-8 days will not be aging dry and hard. This is cane sugar bread can not be reached. \x0d\\\\x0d\ in cake products, can also be added to fructose products, replacing part of the sucrose. In soft pastries and sandwich pastries, due to the good moisturizing properties of fructose, fructose syrup production of cakes of better quality and longer shelf life, can extend the storage period of 15-20 days, fructose cake is still fluffy after 30 days of storage, good flavor. Sucrose cake is dry and hard after a few days, and then some time, the surface layer is broken, and in the storage of fructose cake weight loss is less than sucrose cake. Used in moon cakes and other sandwich food, can all use fructose, good flavor, no odor, and does not produce burnt bitterness. Fructose is used in preserved fruit, jam, jelly, canned fruit, candied fruit and other candied food, due to the higher osmotic pressure than sucrose, which prevents the juice from coming out of the fruit, and helps to keep the flavor of the fruit. Fructose reaches equilibrium faster through the cell wall, improves the stability of the process, and is not affected by PH value (pH). Fructose also has an affinity effect with fruit matter, which also prevents the fruit flavor from coming out against the grain and helps to maintain the fruit flavor. \x0d\\\\x0d\\\ nutritional wines: fructose is now used in large quantities in nutritional wines such as fruit wines, medicinal wines and sparkling wines. Fructose has good solubility and does not obscure the flavor of the liquor itself.
