Cha, ama-sweeteners awawona ushukela. Ama-sweeteners ayikilasi lezithasiselo zokudla ezihlinzeka ngobumnandi. Isakhiwo sawo samakhemikhali sihlukile kunoshukela, futhi ngokuvamile anezinga eliphezulu lobumnandi kodwa ama-calories aphansi noma anguziro. Ama-sweeteners angahlukaniswa abe ama-sweeteners emvelo (afana ne-erythritol ne-steviol glycosides) kanye nama-sweeteners okwenziwa (njenge-aspartame ne-sodium saccharin). Asetshenziswa kakhulu ekudleni, eziphuzweni nasekhemisi ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezidingo zobumnandi bamaqembu ahlukene, ikakhulukazi abanesifo sikashukela nalabo abazama ukwehlisa isisindo. Ukusetshenziswa kwezithako ezinoshukela kumele kuhambisane namazinga afanele kazwelonke okuphepha kokudla ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuphepha nokusebenza ngempumelelo. Okwamanje sinale mikhiqizo esitolo sethu. I-erythritol sweetener yethu inokuhlanzeka okuphezulu (99%), ihlangabezana nezindinganiso zikazwelonke, ifanele izimo ezihlukahlukene zokucubungula ukudla, futhi iza nephakethe elikahle lama-25kg. Xhumana nathi ukuze uthole izixazululo ezingcono kakhulu.
Ama-sweeteners abhekisela ezintweni ezinokunambitheka okumnandi, okuhlanganisa ushukela wemvelo njenge-sucrose ne-fructose, kanye nama-sweeteners okwenziwa afana ne-cyclamate ne-aspartame. Ubumnandi busekelwe ku-sucrose njenge-100. I-Fructose, ngenxa -ye-hexane isomer yayo, ingafinyelela ku-180 (yehle yaba ngu-120-150 kusisombululo esinamanzi). IGlucose inobumnandi obungama-70 futhi ukunyibilika kwayo ekugcineni kukhiqiza ukunambitheka okuqabulayo.
I-Sucrose ivamise ukusetshenziswa ku-ayisikhilimu ku-15%-16%. Isiraphu yesitashi singangena esikhundleni se-1/4 ye-sucrose ukuze kuthuthukiswe i-anti-crystallization. Ezimpahleni ezibhakwayo, ushukela uvimbela ukwakheka kwe-gluten ngokuphelelwa amanzi emzimbeni, uthuthukisa ukucwazimula, futhi andise impilo yeshalofu ngengcindezi ephezulu ye-osmotic. Ihlukaniswa njenge-Group 2B carcinogen yi-International Agency for Research on Cancer, kodwa i-US FDA ikuqinisekisile ukuphepha kwayo. I-Xylitol ingandisa ingozi yesifo senhliziyo; "Amazinga Okusetshenziswa Kwezithako Zokudla" yezwe lami ibeka ukuthi i-cyclamate ayikwazi ukusetshenziswa ekukhiqizeni amabhanisi ashisayo.
Inoveli ye-sweetener allulose inobumnandi obungaba ngu-70% we-sucrose futhi ifinyelela ukuguqulwa okusebenzayo okungaphezu kuka-80% nge-biosynthesis, ekhombisa izici zokulawula ushukela. [13-15] I-GB2760-2014 icacisa ububanzi nemikhawulo yokusetshenziswa kwe-sweetener; i-aspartame idinga ukulebula kolwazi oluyisixwayiso lwe-phenylketonuria (PKU).
