Popular questions
Is ascorbic acid bad for you?
No—ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is considered safe at typical food levels and is essential for health; it’s GRAS in the U.S. and approved in the EU. Very high supplemental doses can cause gastrointestinal upset and, in susceptible people, increase kidney stone risk.
Can dogs have ascorbic acid?
Yes, small amounts in foods are safe, but dogs synthesize their own vitamin C and usually don’t need supplements. High doses may cause diarrhea, so consult a veterinarian before supplementing.
What is ascorbic acid made from?
Commercial ascorbic acid is typically made from glucose (often derived from corn, wheat, or cassava) that’s converted via microbial fermentation and chemical steps into L‑ascorbic acid.
How is ascorbic acid made?
Industrially, D‑glucose is converted to 2‑keto‑L‑gulonic acid by fermentation (or via the older Reichstein process: glucose → sorbitol → L‑sorbose → 2‑KGA) and then chemically cyclized to ascorbic acid. Modern methods use two-step fermentation to improve efficiency.
Is ascorbic acid the same as citric acid?
No—ascorbic acid (E300) is vitamin C and an antioxidant, while citric acid (E330) is a different compound mainly used as an acidulant and does not provide vitamin C.
How to put on atlas snowshoes electra e927?
E927 is a food-additive code, not gear; it covers azodicarbonamide (E927a), a flour treatment/bleaching agent, and carbamide/urea (E927b), used mainly in chewing gum.
What is e927 carbanide?
That refers to carbamide (urea), designated E927b, a food additive used mainly in chewing gum; E927a, by contrast, is azodicarbonamide, a flour treatment agent.
What is the difference between a es927 and a e927 raymarine?
In food labeling, E927a is azodicarbonamide (a flour treatment/oxidizing agent; not permitted in the EU but allowed at low levels in the U.S.), while E927b is carbamide/urea, used mainly in chewing gum.
What is the difference between a raymarine es927 and a e927?
For the E-number system, E927a denotes azodicarbonamide (flour treatment/bleaching agent), and E927b denotes carbamide/urea (used primarily in chewing gum); they are different substances with different uses and regulatory status.
