Magnesium oxide has a very wide range of uses, food grade magnesium oxide and pharmaceutical grade magnesium oxide in addition to having a higher purity and lower content of heavy metals and other key features of the obvious difference, its application is also a very big difference, pharmaceutical grade magnesium oxide is mainly used as a pharmaceutical excipient and other fields.
pharmaceutical grade magnesium oxide
Pharmaceutical grade magnesium oxide can be used as aluminum magnesium belladonna tablets, its role is to neutralize gastric acid, the principle of action for acid-base neutralization, antacid effect is stronger than sodium bicarbonate, slow and long-lasting, does not produce carbon dioxide, and the role of gastric acid to generate magnesium chloride, magnesium ions are released to stimulate intestinal peristalsis, with a light diarrhea effect. It can also be used as animal medicine to make veterinary medicine, animal hygromycin, etc. In addition to these described uses above, it can be used to make B12 fermentation.
Pharmaceutical grade magnesium oxide with low heavy metal content, high magnesium oxide content, low impurity content, need to be tested in strict accordance with national standards, from raw materials to the production process and then to the finished product, every aspect of the product should be in strict accordance with the specifications of the GMP requirements, and only after the qualification can be put into the warehouse, and each time before leaving the factory should be in strict accordance with the national standards of the requirements of the indicators and then retested.
Overview of food grade magnesium oxide
Food grade magnesium oxide, chemical formula for MgO, is a white powdery solid, odorless, non-toxic, non-irritating, not easy to burn, with good heat resistance and stability. It mainly improves the quality and safety of food by improving its physical and chemical properties. Because of its unique properties, food grade magnesium oxide has a wide range of application prospects in the food industry.
The application areas of food grade magnesium oxide
1. Flavoring
Food grade magnesium oxide can be used as a condiment to increase the freshness and taste of food. For example, in soy sauce, vinegar, monosodium glutamate and other condiments add the right amount of food grade magnesium oxide, can improve their freshness, make the food more delicious.
2. Confectionery food
In confectionery food, food grade magnesium oxide can be used as a bulking agent to help the food fluffy and improve the taste. For example, adding appropriate amount of food grade magnesium oxide in baked food such as cake, bread, cookies, etc. can make the food more fluffy and sweet.
3. Beverage
In beverage industry, food grade magnesium oxide can be used as stabilizer and clarifier. For example, adding appropriate amount of food grade magnesium oxide in beer, wine and other liquors can prevent the generation of sediment and keep the drink clear.
4. Meat food
In meat food, food grade magnesium oxide can be used as moisture retention agent and improver. For example, adding appropriate amount of food grade magnesium oxide in meat products such as ham and sausage can keep the meat tender and improve the taste.
5. Dairy products
In dairy products, food grade magnesium oxide can be used as coagulant and stabilizer. For example, adding appropriate amount of food grade magnesium oxide in dairy products such as yogurt and cheese can promote the coagulation of dairy products and improve stability.
The application trend of food grade magnesium oxide
With the progress of science and technology and consumer demand for food quality and safety continues to improve, food grade magnesium oxide will be more and more widely used. In the future, food grade magnesium oxide may play a greater role in the following aspects:
1. Functional food
As people pay more attention to healthy diet, functional food is becoming more and more popular. Food grade magnesium oxide is rich in nutrients and can be used as raw material for functional food to develop more food with specific health care functions.
2. Green food
The improvement of environmental protection consciousness makes green food more and more attention. As an environmentally friendly food additive, food grade magnesium oxide will play an important role in the production of green food.
3. Innovative food
With the continuous development of food science and technology, new types of food continue to emerge. The unique nature of food grade magnesium oxide will provide more possibilities for the development of innovative food, for example, it is expected to be widely used in the field of virtual meat and plant-based food.
In conclusion, food grade magnesium oxide, as a high-quality food additive, has a broad application prospect in the food industry. Through the rational use of food grade magnesium oxide, more possibilities can be added to food products to improve the quality and safety of food products and to meet the growing needs of consumers.
