Description:
Isomaltulose (Palatinose®) is a low-glycemic, naturally derived sweetener with a pleasant taste profile, ideal for a wide range of food and beverage applications including confectionery, low-sugar drinks, and functional foods. It can be used alone or blended with sucrose to achieve tailored sweetness levels and taste masking effects. Notably, Isomaltulose effectively covers off-flavors such as fishy notes from DHA, vegetal tastes in juices, and beany notes in soy milk, enhancing overall product palatability.

Health Benefits:
Isomaltulose is particularly suited for diabetic-friendly formulations. Unlike conventional sugars, it is not hydrolyzed in the mouth, but is slowly digested in the intestine by gut microbiota, resulting in a balanced absorption that does not spike blood glucose levels. Additionally, Isomaltulose acts as a prebiotic, supporting the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and contributing to improved digestive health.

Technological Innovation:
Shandong Sumchemicals utilizes advanced biotransformation technology developed in China, featuring cost-efficient production via Klebsiella-mediated sucrose isomerization. This proprietary process reduces production costs by approximately 30% compared to international methods, offering a competitive advantage in the global sweetener market.

Applications:

  • Confectionery & Candy
  • Low-sugar Beverages
  • Nutritional Foods
  • Dairy Alternatives (e.g., soy milk)
  • Supplements (masking DHA and other functional ingredients)

Key Advantages:

  • Low glycemic index – suitable for diabetics
  • Stable sweetness with excellent taste profile
  • Effective off-flavor masking
  • Supports digestive health as a prebiotic
  • Resistant to most bacteria and yeasts
