Maltodextrin
is a spray-dried starch syrup partially hydrolysed by enzymes with dextrose
equivalent to less than 20 percent. Dried Glucose Syrup is a spray-dried starch
syrup partially hydrolysed by enzymes, with dextrose equivalent to more than 20
percent. (Click here for more applications)
Physiological Properties
A creamy-white hygroscopic
powder that is easily digestible and absorbed as rapidly as glucose.
Advantages

Type of Products
Our maltodextrin powders are
produced from maltodextrin liquid (DE <20%) or glucose syrup (DE > 20%)
by spray drying system after standardized purification.
Maltodextrin appearance is very
fined white to yellowish (agglomerated). Depends on DE (Dextrose Equivalent)
value, its sweetness level is about 10-30% of sucrose sweetness on the same
concentration
Maltodextrin types that are produced
by Sorini are:
MDX-12: DE, 11-15%; moisture less than 5%
Meets requirement of: USP 30/NF 25, BP 2007, EP 2005
General applications: Filler in seasoning, coffe, soup, creamer
MDX-18: DE, 17-20%; moisture less than 5%
Meets requirement of: USP 30/NF 25, BP 2007, EP 2005
General applications: Baby/infants foods, nuts products, biscuits
MDX-29: DE, 28-31%; moisture less than 5%
Meets requirement of: BP 2007, EP 2005, USP XXIII (as Spray-dried Liquid
Glucose)
General applications: Coffee creamer, dairy/non-dairy creamer
MDX-29 basically can be classified as “dried glucose syrup”
or “glucose powder” due to its DE is higher than 20%
