Xylitol Powder

What is Xylitol Powder?

Xylitol Powder is a polyol produced by hydrolysis and hydrogenation of pentose polysaccharides contained in plant fibers, also known as pentapentanol. The molecular formula is C5H12O5, the relative molecular weight is 152.15, and the appearance is a white crystalline powder. It has a sweet taste, and the sweetness is equivalent to that of sucrose. It is easily soluble in water, about 160g/100ml, and slightly soluble in ethanol and methanol. 

The melting point is 92°C ~ 96°C, the boiling point is 216°C, and the calorific value is 16.72kj/g (same as sucrose). organic xylitol powder absorbs heat when dissolved in water, so it will produce a pleasant cooling sensation in the mouth when eaten in solid form, and the pH value of 10% aqueous solution is between 5.0 and 7.0.

What are the ingredients for the production of Bulk Powders Xylitol?

Theoretically, as long as the plants containing pentose polysaccharides can be used as raw materials for the production of xylitol. Xylitol was first discovered in plants in 1943, and mass production began in Finland in the 1970s. Commercial xylitol is extracted from birch and oak trees, and the main producer is resource-rich Finland.

100 xylitol powder production began in China around 1965. At present, the production raw materials that can be used to produce xylitol include corn cob, bagasse, rice husk, etc. These raw materials have the advantages of the high content of pentose polysaccharides, wide sources, large output, easy collection, etc., and are ideal raw materials with high quality and low price.

Is toothpaste made with Bulk Powders Xylitol safe?

The human body has limited tolerance to xylitol. A person weighing 60 kg can only use 15 to 20 grams of xylitol per hour. If an excessive amount of xylitol is ingested continuously within 2 to 3 hours, adverse reactions will occur. Such as nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, etc. However, the amount of toothpaste used for each brushing is about 3 grams, which is still within the safe range even if all xylitol is used. 

Therefore, the use of xylitol toothpaste will not cause adverse reactions due to the intake of xylitol. The safety of xylitol has been recognized and was recognized as a safe food additive by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations Organization for Sugar Farming in 1983.

Why is xylitol an anti-caries agent?

1. Antibacterial effect, bactericidal effect

100 xylitol powder has no effect on microbial growth (no promotion). Xylitol toothpaste can inhibit the fermentation and growth of common oral bacteria and cariogenic bacteria. Xylitol toothpaste has a strong bactericidal effect on oral cariogenic bacteria - Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus, and Candida albicans. It also has a strong antibacterial effect on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

Xylitol can inhibit the growth and acid production of Streptococcus mutans and can be used as an ideal anti-caries sweetener.

2. Remineralization

organic xylitol powder is thought to be involved in early caries development. It promotes remineralization and inhibits demineralization, thereby helping teeth repair tiny cavities naturally. Early caries only has demineralization of the hard tissue of the tooth, and if preventive measures are taken, demineralized teeth can also be remineralized. It is in the dynamic balance of "demineralization" and "mineralization" in the oral cavity that xylitol makes the "mineralization" more powerful.
