Product Introduction

Dihydrochalcone Sweetener: High-Intensity Natural Sweetener for Food & Pharmaceutical Applications

Kang Biotech uses contemporary water or ethanol extraction methods to make 98% pure Dihydrochalcone Sweetener (Naringin/NHDC) verified by HPLC. We operate a 33,000 m² plant with 9 production lines and manage over 20,000,000 m² of citrus groves in Hunan Province. Batch-to-batch consistency and consistent supply capacity are guarantyd by our 11 years of manufacturing  and 20 years of citrus extraction technology. Our ISO 22000, HACCP, Halal, Kosher, and FAMI-QS-certified product is ideal for global B2B food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and animal nutrition procurement.

What is Dihydrochalcone Sweetener?

Our product (NHDC) is a semi-synthetic high-intensity sweetener made from citrus flavonoids. It solves major food science formulation issues.

This sweetener masks caffeine and plant protein bitterness well. It reduces the metallic taste of saccharin or acesulfame-K.

Different from traditional sweeteners, it has several uses. Your product improves mouthfeel by mimicking sucrose body while being non-glycemic for diabetics.

Industrial Applications Across Critical Sectors

Dihydrochalcone Sweetener for varied and demanding B2B applications that value performance consistency.

Beverage Industry: 1-5 ppm stevia concentrations hide its bitterness in low-calorie fruit juices and fizzy beverages. It boosts natural fruit fragrance and delivers your consumers' expected sweetness.

Pharmaceuticals: Your APIs have better taste-masking characteristics. It conceals the harsh taste of Ibuprofen or Paracetamol in syrups and chewable tablets with slow-onset, long-duration sweetness.

It improves piglet weaning feed palatability in B2B feed applications. The strong sweetness hides vitamin and mineral smells, boosting increased ingestion during stress-induced appetite suppression.

Food Processing: Dairy, frozen, jellos, and chewing gum flavors enhance. Non-alcoholic drinks strike a better flavor balance without calories.

Quality Control & Compliance Standards

Tight quality control guarantees your purchase satisfies international regulations and formulation stability.

HPLC verification shows 96-101% dry purity. Each batch is analytically tested before release.

Our heavy metal limits are Lead ≤2mg/kg and Arsenic ≤3mg/kg, determined by ICP-MS. Mercury is below detectable levels for sensitive applications.

Microbiological Profile: Total Plate Count <1000 cfu/g, Yeast & Mold <100. Comprehensive testing ensures E. coli and Salmonella absence.

Ethanol and methanol checked to keep within ICH standards. This assures pharmaceutical and infant food safety.

Our manufacture meets ISO 9001, ISO 22000, and FDA requirements. These certifications streamline quality management system integration.

Synergistic Benefits & Technical Advantages

Adding product to your product matrix improves formulation.

By blending with Aspartame, sweetness lasts 10-30% longer. This lowers sweetener concentration and improves taste curves.

It won't cause tooth decay since oral bacteria can't ferment it. Oral care and candy might be tooth-friendly.

The chemical structure strongly binds to T1R2/T1R3 sweetness receptors. This delays sweetness onset but prolongs it compared to sucrose.

European (E959), US (FEMA 3811), and Chinese (GB2760) approvals. This allows regulatory-free international trade.

Your formulas operate well at different temperatures. Processing options include cold beverages, high-temperature baking, and extrusion.

Packaging & Logistics Solutions

Our flexible supply chain solutions meet your operating needs.

Moisture-resistant 25 kilogram fiber drums are standard packaging. Modified pack sizes and private labeling are available for OEM/ODM packaging.

Existing inventory allows fast dispatch, reducing lead times. Air and sea freight handle huge business shipments whereas FedEx handles modest trial orders.

Minimum order quantity: 1 kilogram for R&D sampling and formulation experiments. This lets you test performance before scaling to production.

Our logistics network covers 40+ European, North American, and Asian nations. Shipping at a specified temperature preserves product quality.

FAQ

Q: Why does the product have delayed sweetness onset?

A: Its chemical structure attaches to T1R2/T1R3 sweetness receptors more slowly but firmly than sucrose, prolonging sweetness experience.

Q: Can it tolerate high-temperature baking?

A: The decomposition temperature surpasses 150°C. It retains sweetness during most baking and extrusion operations.

Q: How does it interact with other sweeteners in formulations?

A: Synergistic with Aspartame, prolonging sweetness and enhancing taste curves.

Q: What about regulatory approval for international markets?

A: EU clearance (E959), US GRAS certification (FEMA 3811), and China GB2760 listing help NHDC comply with worldwide trade.

Q: Does it support diabetes product claims?

A: Yes. It supports sugar-free and diabetic formulations due to its non-glycemic profile and low caloric contribution.
