Less than 4 IU/g for parenteral dosage forms having a concentration of 100 g/l or less of mannitol, and less than 2.5 IU/g for
parenteral dosage forms having a concentration of more than 100 g/l of mannitol. |
(1) Develop foods for people with diabetes. The primary metabolic pathway of mannitol in the human body has nothing to do with. After ingestion, it will not cause significant fluctuations in blood glucose and levels, and can be consumed by people with diabetes.
(2) For anti-caries sweets. Mannitol will not be used by oral microorganisms and can also inhibit the growth and reproduction of Streptococcus mutans, so it can be used to produce anti-caries sweet food. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration agreed to label "No dental caries" on sugar-free foods that use polyols such as mannitol.
(3)Develop mannitol chewing gum. Mannitol has a refreshing sweetness, its sweetness is equivalent to 0.6 of sucrose, its dissolution endothermic is -29Cal/g, which is equivalent to 76% of xylitol (-38Cal/g). Using this feature, mannitol can be used as a sweetener and flavoring agent in the production of chewing gum.
