| Description | Indirect food additive arising from its use as a constituent of cotton, cotton fabrics, paper and paperboard in contact with dry food
Sorbose is a ketose belonging to the group of sugars known as monosaccharides. The commercial production of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) often begins with sorbose.; Sorbose is a ketose belonging to the group of sugars known as monosaccharides. The commercial production of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) often begins with sorbose. L-Sorbose is the configuration of the naturally-occurring sugar. L-Sorbose is found in many foods, some of which are summer savory, sacred lotus, pepper (c. annuum), and pasta. |
