Introduction

Used in food and beverage

Low molecular weight alcohols, acids and esters are widely used in food and beverage industry. For example, xylitol is a type of carbohydrate called a sugar alcohol which can be used as a sugar-free sweetener in chewing gum, baked goods, and many other products created for human consumption; citric acid is an organic compound which can be used as a flavoring and preservative in food and beverages, especially soft drinks and candies; monolaurin is the mono-ester formed from glycerol and lauric acid which can be used as an emulsifier or preservative in foods such as ice cream, margarine, and spaghetti.
