  • Process for separation, isolation and characterization of steviol glycosides
    Patent number: 11306114
    Abstract: A comprehensive process for the separation, isolation and characterization of a combination of two or more steviol glycosides from extract of Stevia rebaudiana plants and their use in sweetening compositions are disclosed. Combinations of two or more steviol glycosides from Stevia rebaudiana are characterized. The combinations of two or more steviol glycosides can be used as sweetness enhancers, flavor enhancers and sweeteners in foods, beverages, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

  • Methods for buffer stabilized aqueous deacylation
    Publication number: 20050170069
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel methods for stabilizing aqueous deacylation, via use of buffers in the production of sucralose. The present invention provides a process for producing sucralose from an acyl-sucralose compound whereby the acyl-sucralose compound is deacylated in the presence of a buffering agent, which stabilizes the pH of the feed mixture and decreases the accumulation of undesired anhydro compounds. Further, the present invention provides a process whereby the acyl-sucralose compound is deacylated directly either prior to or after removal of the tertiary amide reaction vehicle from the neutralized chlorination feed mixture. An aqueous solution of sucralose including salts and other compounds is produced, from which sucralose is recovered by extraction and purified by crystallization.
