Popular questions
What is d gamma tocopherol?
d‑γ‑tocopherol is the naturally occurring stereoisomer of gamma‑tocopherol, a vitamin E compound used as the antioxidant food additive E308, typically derived from vegetable oils or produced synthetically.
Why is e308 infinity?
If you mean the food additive code E308, “infinity” doesn’t apply—it refers to gamma‑tocopherol, an antioxidant; you may be thinking of scientific notation where “E308” means ×10^308 in calculators, which is unrelated.
10 mg gamma tocopherol is how many iu?
There’s no direct IU conversion for γ‑tocopherol because vitamin E IUs are defined for α‑tocopherol activity; some older systems counted γ‑tocopherol as ~0.1 mg α‑TE per mg, but modern labeling generally does not convert it to IU.
Beta gamma tocopherol standard what is normal range?
There is no single regulatory “normal range” for β‑ or γ‑tocopherol as food additives—specifications vary by manufacturer and use; in clinical testing, reference intervals for blood levels also vary by lab, and nutrition labeling typically counts only α‑tocopherol.
Crusaders of the lost idol how to get past the e308 cap?
That refers to a video‑game notation (~10^308) and isn’t related to the food additive E308; in foods, E308 simply denotes γ‑tocopherol used as an antioxidant.
Is citric acid bad for you?
At typical food levels, citric acid (E330) is considered safe by major regulators (GRAS; EFSA/JECFA). Concentrated or frequent acidic exposure can irritate the mouth/stomach or contribute to tooth enamel erosion.
Where does the citric acid cycle occur?
In eukaryotic cells it occurs in the mitochondrial matrix; in bacteria it occurs in the cytosol.
What does citric acid do to your body?
It is a normal intermediate in energy metabolism and is readily metabolized to carbon dioxide and water. Citrate can bind minerals, which may enhance absorption of some and help prevent certain kidney stones by increasing urinary citrate.
Where does citric acid come from?
It occurs naturally in citrus fruits, but most food-grade citric acid is produced by fermenting sugars (e.g., from corn, beet, or cane) with Aspergillus niger.
How is citric acid made?
Industrially, sugars are fermented with Aspergillus niger to produce citric acid, then it is recovered and purified—often by precipitating calcium citrate and converting it back with sulfuric acid or via ion-exchange/crystallization.
