説明

Refer to JUNIPER BERRIES.
Ammoniated glycyrrhizin is prepared from a hot water extract of licorice root by sulfuric acid precipitation followed by neutraliza tion with dilute ammonia. The final product is a mixture of the mono-, di-, and tri-ammonium salts.
The glycyrrhizin content of licorice varies with the place of origin. Oriental block licorice contains 20 percent or more glycyrrhizin while Italian and Spanish products contain from 12 to 16 percent of the substance.
Ammoniated glycyrrhizin has been important to the food industry because it is 50 times sweeter than sucrose and for its foam stabilizing action. It has been reported ammoniated glycyrrhizin synergizes the sweetness of sucrose and potentiates the flavor of chocolate. It is often used as a sweetener in tobacco products.
