Popular questions
Calcium peroxide – what it is: bleaching agent and dough conditioner?
Calcium peroxide (E930) is a synthetic flour treatment agent that releases oxygen, acting as a bleaching agent to whiten flour and as a dough conditioner to strengthen gluten and improve texture. It is used at very low levels and is almost insoluble in water.
Calcium peroxide how long has this chemical been around?
It has been known since the early 20th century, with food-related uses (e.g., flour treatment) established for several decades. Its approval and use vary by country.
How do you use baking soda and peroxide on granite counter tops to remove calcium?
That method typically refers to hydrogen peroxide, not calcium peroxide (E930); calcium peroxide is a food additive and not intended for stone cleaning—use granite-safe cleaners per the manufacturer’s guidance.
How do you use baking soda and peroxide on granite countertops to remove calcium?
This refers to hydrogen peroxide rather than calcium peroxide (E930); the food additive isn’t suitable for cleaning granite, so follow stone-care products and instructions instead.
How do you use dental calcium peroxide paste with idofrm?
Dental pastes commonly use calcium hydroxide with iodoform, not calcium peroxide; E930 is a flour treatment additive and should not be used for dental applications—follow product labeling or a dentist’s guidance.
What does glucose oxidase do?
It’s an enzyme that oxidizes glucose to D-glucono-delta-lactone (which becomes gluconic acid) while producing hydrogen peroxide and consuming oxygen; in foods it acts as an oxygen scavenger/antioxidant and can strengthen dough.
Cytochrome oxidase is used in which stage of the aerobic respiration of glucose?
Cytochrome c oxidase works in the electron transport chain (oxidative phosphorylation), the final stage of aerobic respiration; this is a different enzyme from the food additive glucose oxidase (E1102).
Glucose oxidase produces what?
Hydrogen peroxide and D-glucono-delta-lactone (which hydrolyzes to gluconic acid), while consuming oxygen.
How does glucose oxidase work?
It is an FAD-dependent oxidoreductase that binds beta-D-glucose, oxidizes it to D-glucono-delta-lactone, and reduces oxygen to hydrogen peroxide—removing oxygen and generating a mild antimicrobial oxidant.
How much hydrogen peroxide does glucose oxidase produce?
Stoichiometry is 1 mole of H2O2 per mole of glucose oxidized (about 34 mg H2O2 per mmol of glucose); in foods the actual amount formed depends on available glucose and oxygen and may be further decomposed or consumed.
