Natural Flavors Profiling
When discussing natural flavors, a major topic recently has been natural low-calorie sweeteners. With the market trending away from full sugar beverages, the use of natural sweeteners, such as stevia, monk fruit, and yacon, has exploded in popularity. However, for all their benefits, natural sweeteners have their drawbacks. One of the challenges working with natural sweeteners is that they are made up of complex mixtures of components. Each component imparts unique flavor properties. Our natural flavors profiling services can help you ensure that your natural flavors and sweeteners offer consistent flavor through accurate analysis of the component ratios. Additionally, with a precise knowledge of the component distribution, you can predictably fine tune your product flavor.
Planta Analytica has developed a strong set of analytical methods for thorough profiling of various natural flavors. We can support you from your agronomic cultivar studies, all the way through your batch-to-batch quality control.
