Description:
Sorbitol, with the CAS number 98201-93-5, is a sugar alcohol that is commonly used as a sweetener and humectant in various food and pharmaceutical products. It is a colorless, odorless, and hygroscopic crystalline solid that is soluble in water. Sorbitol has a sweet taste, approximately 60% as sweet as sucrose, making it a popular choice for low-calorie and sugar-free products. It is non-cariogenic, meaning it does not contribute to tooth decay, which is beneficial for dental health. Sorbitol is metabolized slowly in the body, leading to a lower glycemic index compared to regular sugars, making it suitable for diabetic diets. Additionally, it has applications in cosmetics and personal care products due to its moisturizing properties. However, excessive consumption can lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, as it can have a laxative effect. Overall, sorbitol is valued for its versatility and safety in various applications, contributing to its widespread use in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
