Zenex Organic Sorbitol Powder – Natural Sweetener Powder Pack of 100 Gram

Sorbitol, also known as D-sorbitol, 50-70-4, E420, and D-glucoside, is a type of carbohydrate. It belongs to a class of sugar alcohols called polyols, slow metabolism in the human body. It can be obtained by reducing glucose, which converts the converted aldehyde group (- CHO) into a primary alcohol group (- CH 2 OH). Most sorbitols are made from potato starch, but they also exist in nature, such as apples, pears, peaches, and plums. Convert it to fructose through sorbitol-6-phosphate 2-dehydrogenase. Sorbitol is an isomer of mannitol, another sugar alcohol; the two differ only in the orientation of the hydroxyl group on carbon 2.While similar, the two sugar alcohols have very different sources in nature, melting points, and uses.
