Technical Information:
Glucono Delta Lactone (GDL) is a raw material found naturally in products such as honey, fruit juice, and processed vegetables. It is obtained from a plant-derived carbohydrate through microbial fermentation.
Glucono delta lactone, identified by the code E575, has a sourness one-third that of citric acid and a sharp taste.
GDL is converted to gluconic acid by the addition of water. When this conversion is relatively slow, GDL acts as a slow acidity regulator, gradually lowering pH. Therefore, it is used as an acidity regulator and pH adjuster in cheese products such as white cheese and mozzarella, in the production of tofu, in meat products such as sausages, soudjouks, and canned meat, and in the production of ketchup, salad dressing, chip sauces, and prepared salads (potato salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, shrimp salad, etc.). It is used as a preservative in seafood such as shrimp and mussels to extend shelf life. It is used as a leavening agent in baked goods, along with sodium bicarbonate. It is also used in lubricants.
In addition to being a food ingredient, gluconolactone is also used in personal care products such as moisturizers, facial cleansers, sunscreen, and hair conditioners.
It is also used as a preservative, humectant, and solvent in the formulation of many cosmetic products.
It is a free radical scavenger that helps protect the skin from some of the effects of UV radiation and exfoliates.
