Maltodextrin is a type of carbohydrate derived from starch. It is commonly used as a food additive and has a wide range of applications in the food industry. Maltodextrin is produced by hydrolyzing starch, typically from corn, rice, or potato, which breaks down the large starch molecules into smaller chains of glucose molecules.
Maltodextrin is a white, odorless powder that dissolves easily in water. It has a mild, slightly sweet taste but is not as sweet as regular sugar. One of the main reasons maltodextrin is used in food products is its ability to function as a thickening agent, stabilizer, or bulking agent. It helps improve the texture, mouthfeel, and shelf life of various processed foods and beverages.
Maltodextrin is commonly used as a food additive in processed foods and beverages. It serves as a thickener, stabilizer, or bulking agent, enhancing the texture and mouthfeel of products such as desserts, sauces, salad dressings, and beverages.
Maltodextrin can be used as an excipient in pharmaceutical formulations. It helps in the stabilization and controlled release of active ingredients in tablets, capsules, and other oral medications.
Maltodextrin can be found in various personal care products, such as cosmetics, skincare, and hair care products. It is used as a binding agent, emollient, or viscosity modifier, contributing to the texture and stability of these products.
