Food additives carriers

Specifications for identity and purity of food additives (carrier solvents, emulsifiers and stabilizers, enzyme preparations, flavouring agents, food colours, sweetening agents, and other food additives). FAO Food and Nutrition Paper, No. 19, 1981. 

The Council and the Commission must adopt positive fists of additives, authorised to the exclusion of all others, fists of foods in which the additives may be used with conditions of use, and rules on carrier solvents. The Standing Committee on Foodstuffs must approve adoption of purity criteria for listed additives and, if necessary, methods of analysis to verily these purity criteria, sampling procedures and methods of analysis for food additives in food. The directive includes provisions that a member state may temporarily suspend or restrict application of an authorisation if it has detailed grounds for considering that the use of the additive in food, although permitted, endangers health. The...

For releasing materials it is likely that there will be a focus on the releasing component and its authorisation as a food additive, including any quantitative restriction or a restriction on the types of food. The information on efficacy may be important, e.g., in the case of a released preservative the final efficacy in the food should be demonstrated. A general rule may be considered that if the released component shows insufficient or no technical effect on the food, then the food additive does not comply with the requirements on food additives or any other relevant regulation on the composition of food and its additives, e.g., the requirements on food flavours. As a consequence such a material may not obtain a favourable opinion. Some information may be requested on the carrier of the releasing substance, but as this will not be part of an authorisation the safety of the carrier is the responsibility of the producer and the final user. In many cases the carrier may be subject to other provision on food contact materials. In principle the carrier should be inert and should not migrate to the food at an unacceptable concentration.

A number of food additives and ingredients are available in encapsulated form, which include active agents such as citrous flavors, citric acid, ascorbic acid, spice extracts, and vegetable extracts. Encapsulation serves to enhance stabihty, reduce loss by volatilization and oxidative degradation, increase shelf-life, and impart better handling properties. Water-soluble carriers in common use for food additives are gum arabic, modified starches, maltodextrins and hydrolyzed gelatins. Encapsulation... 

Edible coatings cannot be typically considered packages bnt rather physical food protecting barriers, which can additionally act as carriers of active and/or bioactive substances and controlled release of flavor molecules, giving them an added-valne.

For use specifically as a food additive, yeast is dried and powdered the processing kills the cells. In addition to providing a source of vitamins this material forms an ideal carrier for food flavouring materials, e.g. on potato crisps. 

The natural silicate minerals have been paid more attention to deal with the environment pollution and energy crisis. As a mass of natural the layer silicate clay mineral, attapulgite (ATP) and vermiculite (VMT) have a wide variety of industrial applications such as absorbent, catalyst carrier, densifying agent, adhesive, and food additive. In this chapter, we summarized the synthesis and photocatalytic performance of nano-silicates-based photocatalysts, which provided a general approach for the improvement and design of visible-light-driven photocatalysis.
