Solid corn syrup DE 50
Appropriate sweetness adjustment: In milk powder, reasonable sweetness is crucial.
Good moisturizing performance: It has excellent moisturizing ability, which can prevent milk powder from absorbing moisture and agglomeration, and always maintain the looseness and fluidity of milk powder.
Nutritional fortification function: rich in a variety of sugars and trace elements, can be added to milk powder as a nutritional enhancer.
The thickening effect is remarkable: it has a maltose texture, very viscous, and the addition of milk powder can increase the viscosity of milk powder, which can not only improve the feeling of satiety, but also help prevent constipation in babies to a certain extent.
Product Introduction
Solid corn syrup is a syrup made from high-quality corn starch through a multi-enzyme hydrolysis process, and its main ingredient is maltose. It occupies an important position in the field of the food industry, especially in the production of milk powder. It appears as a colorless and transparent, clear plastid viscous liquid, with a mild and pure taste, a unique malty aroma, and relatively low sweetness, which gives it significant advantages in a variety of product applications.
Use Cases
1. Infant formula (1-3 years).
A well-known milk powder brand adds 5%-8% solid corn syrup to infant formula, on the one hand, to replace part of the lactose, control the sweetness of the product within 1.2 times the sweetness of breast milk, and avoid the baby's taste dependence due to excessive sweetness; on the other hand, through its moisture retention and nitrogen-filled packaging technology, the clumping rate of milk powder during the shelf life is less than 3% in an environment of 25°C and 60% relative humidity, which is far better than the industry average standard of 5%.
2. High-calcium milk powder for middle-aged and elderly people
In response to the problem of lactose intolerance among middle-aged and elderly people, a brand uses solid corn syrup as the main carbohydrate source (accounting for 12%-15%) in high-calcium milk powder, with whey protein and calcium carbonate. According to consumer feedback, the product has a smooth and astringent taste after preparation, and the incidence of bloating and diarrhea is reduced by 60% after drinking, and the low GI value of solid corn syrup (glycemic index ≤55) is also in line with the needs of middle-aged and elderly people for blood sugar control.
3. Sports milk powder
Sports milk powder needs to be quickly replenished with energy, a product adds 10%-12% solid corn syrup, using its easily absorbable maltose component, combined with whey protein, can supplement carbohydrates and protein for the human body within 30 minutes after exercise, and due to the thickening of solid corn syrup, milk powder is prepared to form a uniform suspension to avoid layering and sedimentation problems when drinking during exercise.
Advantages over other sugar raw materials
Raw material type | Sweetness (100 in sucrose). | Moisturizing | Lactose intolerance adaptation | Cost advantage | Applicable milk powder types |
Solid corn syrup | 60-70 | excellent | High (can replace lactose). | middle | Milk powder for all ages |
cane sugar | 100 | difference | Low (easy to cause discomfort). | low | Adult regular milk powder |
40-50 | middle | high | low | Infant milk powder (auxiliary). | |
Glucose syrup solid | 70-80 | middle | high | high | Sports milk powder |
As can be seen from the above table, solid corn syrup presents a "balanced advantage" in sweetness, moisture retention and adaptability, which can not only meet the taste and nutritional needs of people of different ages, but also balance production costs, and is a very cost-effective sugar raw material in milk powder production.
Apply safety and standards specifications
1. International safety standards
China: In line with the National Food Safety Standard Malt Syrup and Fructose Syrup (GB/T 20883), it is stipulated that the amount of solid corn syrup added to milk powder shall not exceed 30% of the total carbohydrates, and the content of heavy metals (lead, arsenic) ≤ 0.1mg/kg.
European Union: Following EC No.1333/2008, the DE value (glucose equivalent) of solid corn syrup is required to be between 20-40 (too high a DE value can easily cause milk powder to absorb moisture, and too low will affect solubility), and must pass microbiological testing (total number of colonies≤ 1000CFU/g).
United States: Meets the FDA's "Food Additive Safety Standards" and is allowed to be used in infant formula, but it must be labeled as "containing maltose" to facilitate the identification of lactose intolerant people.
2. Key points of production control
Timing of addition: Add it in the "concentrate stage" before the milk powder spray drying, and control the temperature at 60-70°C to avoid high temperature damaging the molecular structure of solid corn syrup and affecting moisture retention and solubility.
Ratio control: The recommended ratio with lactose is 1:2 (1 part solid corn syrup, 2 parts lactose), which can not only optimize the taste, but also ensure the nutritional balance of milk powder and avoid nutritional imbalance caused by a single sugar.
Application trend outlook
With the increasing demand for "low-sugar and natural" among consumers, the application of solid corn syrup is developing in the direction of "functional upgrading":
Low GI improvement: The GI value of solid corn syrup is reduced below 50 through the optimization of the enzymatic hydrolysis process, which is more suitable for special milk powder for diabetics.
Nutritional fortification: Nutrients such as vitamin B and calcium are added during the production process, so that solid corn syrup has the dual functions of "sweetness regulation" and "nutritional supplement".
