Neotame, chemical name: N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L-α-aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine-1-methyl ester, is a white crystalline powder containing about 4.5% crystalline water, and is a functional sweetener. It has a pure sweet taste, harmonious sweetness, very close to aspartame, without the bitter and metallic aftertaste often associated with other high-intensity sweeteners. It is 7000 to 13000 times sweeter than sucrose and 30 to 60 times sweeter than aspartame. Its energy value is almost zero. It remains stable under instantaneous high-temperature conditions; in cake production, after baking at 450°C, 85% of the neotame still remains.

1. Application in Canned Fruits

Reduces the overall specific gravity of the syrup, thereby reducing fruit floating, without the need to add more fruit. In GB2760, it is permitted as a sweetener for canned products. Neotame shows good stability during the heat treatment of canned products. Replaces 40%-50% of sucrose, reducing product costs. The product shelf life is 12-24 months. Flavors: sweet orange, waxberry, loquat, lychee, pineapple, longan. Recommended sweetness multiple: 6500-7000.

7. Application in Chewing Gum

Application method: On the basis of the original formula, add neotame additionally. Recommended dosage: Coating: 15ppm, Gum base: 40ppm

To balance costs, the weight of chewing gum can be reduced by 7-8%.

Application advantages: Has a longer sweetness delay, meeting the need for extended sweetness. The sweetness of the product is associated with the mint flavor; as long as the sweetness persists, the mint flavor will also persist. Due to neotame's flavor-enhancing properties, the amount of flavoring in mint gum can be reduced.

Recommended addition methods: Use propylene glycol as a solvent- saturated solubility is 20%; use glycerol as a solvent- saturated solubility is 10%; pre-mix with powdered sugar or other powdered additives at a ratio of 1-2%.

Note: It is not recommended to use flavorings directly as solvents.

8. Application in Tabletop Sweeteners

Because neotame is non-hygroscopic and has low energy, it is very suitable as a tabletop sweetener. Studies have shown that neotame can be stored for at least 156 weeks when used as a tabletop sweetener.

9. Application in Starch-based Foods

Adding neotame to starch-based foods can inhibit starch retrogradation and extend the shelf life of the food; adding it to protein-rich foods such as eggs and fish can inhibit protein denaturation and maintain good taste.

10. Application in the Pharmaceutical Field

When used as a sweetener in pharmaceuticals, neotame only serves to modify the taste and does not affect the efficacy.

Its prolonged aftertaste can mask the bitterness in medicines or the off-flavors of substances like vitamins; small dosage does not increase the volume of tablets; used in oral liquids, it provides a clearer taste compared to sucrose.

11. Application in Toothpaste and Cosmetics

Using neotame as a sweetener in toothpaste and mouthwash can effectively maintain the product's cool characteristics. Neotame can also be used in cosmetics such as lipstick, lip balm, and bath moisturizers.

12. Application in Cigarette Filters

The technical bottleneck of sweetness in cigarette filters is that the sweetness lasts too short and cannot be maintained until the cigarette is finished. Neotame's aftertaste characteristic effectively solves this problem.

13. Application in Animal Feed: Effectively masks the aftertaste bitterness of saccharin and improves the palatability of feed.

The daily feed intake of livestock is a major factor determining their growth rate, especially for piglets and suckling pigs, as it affects the entire growth process. Therefore, improving feed palatability increases their daily intake, thereby accelerating growth.

Livestock, especially young pigs and piglets, have more sensitive taste than humans.

Neotame's following characteristics can compensate for and improve feed sweeteners: pure sweetness, without bitter, astringent, or metallic off-flavors;

Long aftertaste can mask the bitterness and metallic taste of saccharin, improve the taste characteristics of feed, and mask off-flavors; has a synergistic effect with saccharin of 14-24%. Use at 0.05-0.1% addition for low-grade feed, 0.15-0.25% for medium-grade feed, and 0.3% or above for high-grade feed.

14. Application in Other Products

Unlike aspartame, neotame can be used with certain reducing sugars, such as glucose, fructose, lactose, etc.

The usage range of neotame is various food and beverages, and the usage amount is as needed for production. Generally, 8-17mg/L for beverages, 10-35mg/Kg for foods.

【Product Storage】Store neotame in a dry, clean, cool place. Shelf life: two years.
