Abstract: A method for the manufacture of mixed esters of lactic acid, citric acid and partial glycerides of fatty acids having carboxyl groups neutralized with alkali to a mixed ester acid number of 10 to 200 wherein a mixture of lactic acid and an alkali lactate is formed and in this mixture is esterified either in two steps or one step with the partial glycerides of fatty acids. This process can be carried out with the avoidance of the danger of saponification and also without the use of solvents.
Abstract: Improved aqueous edible oil emulsions are obtained by using about 1-20 wt.% of certain water-soluble hydroxy-propylmethyl cellulose ethers as the emulsion stabilizer. These ethers have a thermal gel point of at least 70.degree. C as a 2% aqueous solution, a methoxyl degree of substitution of about 1.12-1.56, a hydroxypropoxyl molar substitution of about 0.10-0.29, and a 2% aqueous solution viscosity of 2-15 cps at 20.degree.C. They are particularly effective in stabilizing homogenized emulsions of citrus flavoring oils used in soft carbonated beverages.

Abstract: A solvent-free transesterification comprising the steps of (1) heating a mixture of a polyol, a fatty acid lower alkyl ester, an alkali metal fatty acid soap, and a basic catalyst to form a homogenous melt; and (2) subsequently adding to the reaction product of step (1) excess fatty acid lower alkyl esters yields polyol fatty acid polyesters.

Abstract: A shelf-stable, protein free emulsion having a pH within the range of 6-8 consisting of 0.1-1 part neutral type fat, 1 part water, 2 parts sugar and about 0.25% to about 7% by weight of an emulsufier selected from sodium stearyl fumarate and sodium succinoylated monoglycerides. An adjunct emulsifier, such as propylene glycol monostearate as well as food flavoring and coloring may also be present.
Abstract: Meat and sausage goods are preserved by applying a coating composition containing a high viscosity cellulose propionate and fully acetylated monoglyceride having a high iodine number, dissolved in a volatile organic solvent.
