Gluconic acid

Gluconic acid gluconic acid, the aldehyde group at the 1 position of glucose is replaced by a carboxyl group to form an aldonic acid (aldonic acid). Form D is produced in large amounts by fermentation of gluconic acid by the mold Aspergillus niger (Asp-ergilus) and Acetobacter xylinum,Gluconobacter (Acetobacterxylinum,Gluconobacter, etc.). Glucose oxidase from Penicillium Penicillium (notatum) oxidizes β-D-glucose to δ-gluconolactone.

Product Details

English name: gluconic acid

Gluconic acid is an aldonic acid (aldonic acid) formed by replacing the aldehyde group at position 1 of glucose with a carboxyl group. Form D is produced in large amounts by fermentation of gluconic acid by the mold Aspergillus niger (Asp-ergilus) and Acetobacter xylinum,Gluconobacter (Acetobacterxylinum,Gluconobacter, etc.). Glucose oxidase from Penicillium Penicillium (notatum) oxidizes β-D-glucose to δ-gluconolactone.

Product use

Protein coagulants and food preservatives. Used in the production of gluconate salts such as sodium gluconate, potassium gluconate, calcium gluconate, etc.

Production method

Gluconic acid can be produced from glucose oxidation or biological fermentation.

sugar acid

Gluconic acid, also known as dextrorotatory gluconic acid, glucose in the role of weak oxidants or enzymes, the molecule of the aldehyde group is oxidized to carboxyl and a sugar acid. Its 6-phosphate is an intermediate in the oxidative breakdown of glucose in the organism (pentose phosphate pathway). With calcium, zinc and other metal ions into soluble salts, as nutrients and drugs.
