Saccharose esters

Sucro Ester. [Gattefosse GattefosseSA] Saccharose esters food emulsifier. 

Use S. is the economically most important sugar compound and is produced in larger amounts for further use as an industrial feedstock, see also Lit. . Besides its main use in the food industry and for conservation purposes (jams, etc.), S. can also be used in plastics, varnishes, as fermentation additive for the production of proteins, amino acids, yeasts, enzymes, antibiotics, steroids, fats, ethanol, ethylene, glycerol, sorbitol, sugar acids, explosives, tartaric acid, softeners, saccharose esters for detergents, etc. S.-propylene oxide adducts are used in hard PUR expanded plastics. 

Mean particle size ranges 50 to 1000 mn. Depending on the type and concentration of the lipid, 0.5 to 5% emulsifier (surfactant) has to be added for physical stabilization. For dermal use, surfactants are very often poloxamer 188, polysorbate 80, lecithin, tyloxapol, polyglycerol methylglucose distearate (Tegocare 450), sodinm cocoamphoacetate (Miranol Ultra C32), or saccharose fatty acid ester. 

The most important of the carbohydrate esters of nitric acid are the polysaccharide nitrates, particularly cellulose nitrate or nitrocellulose (NC) and starch nitrate ( nitrostarch ) which is much less used. Nitric esters prepared from other sugars such as saccharose and lactose are not of any importance as explosives. 

Long ago, such widely occurring and readily available carbohydrates as glucose, lactose, galactose, and saccharose attracted the attention of chemists, who examined these substances to find out whether they were suitable raw materials for manufacturing explosives, in the form of nitric esters. 

In the early researches on 0. europaea, [35], Panizzi demonstrated that oleuropeic acid 31, the 4-( 1. hydroxyisopropyl> 1 -cycloexene-1 -carboxylic acid, occurs in the root bark of (). europaea, mainly as a sucrose ester, i.e. the 6-O-oleuropeil saccharose 32 (see Figure 14). The structure of 31 was determined by comparison with an authentic sample [36-38]. The demonstration of the position of ester linkage in oleuropeil saccharose 32 was achieved with a combination of enzymatic and chemical reactions [39]. 

Fat mimetics used in industry are macromolecules similar to conventional fats and oils with respect to their physical and chemical properties. They are chemically synthesized or extracted from traditional fats and combined with other components such as saccharose. Commercially available carbohydrate fat substitutes include DDA (fat ester of malonic and alkyl-malonic acids) and Olean (Olestra, a mixture of octa-, hepta-, and hexa-esters of saccharose). 

L-Aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester (Aspartam ) is an artificial sweetener that is almost 200 times sweeter than saccharose.

Sugar esters or sugar alcohol esters with long chain fatty acids (lauric, palmitic, stearic and oleic) are produced industrially and are very important as surface-active agents. These include sorbitan fatty acid esters (cf. 8.15.3.3) and those of saccharose (cf. 8.15.3.2), which have diversified uses in food processing. 

This group includes industrially produced substances. Esters of sorbitol or saccharose with one or two molecules of fatty acids are used as emulsifiers of fats. Sucrose esters with 5-8 molecules of fatty acids are used as fat substitutes (called Olestra), with the advantage that they have physical properties similar to fat and give the same sensory impression, but they are unusable in the human body and therefore do not supply the body with energy. These substances are described in more detail in the section dealing with food additives (see Section 11.5.2.1.5).
