IHydroxypropyl MethylCellulose E464

IHydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) yi-semi-synthetic polymer ephuma kwi-cellulose. Isetyenziswa ngokuqhelekileyo kwishishini lokutya njengesongezo sokutya kunye nenombolo ye-E E464.

I-HPMC yenziwa ngokunyanga i-cellulose ngendibaniselwano yealkali kunye ne-etherification agents, nto leyo ekhokelela ekubeni kufakwe endaweni yamanye amaqela e-hydroxyl kwi-cellulose molekyuli kunye ne-hydroxypropyl kunye namaqela e-methyl. Iqondo lokuthatha indawo limisela iipropati zesiphumo se-HPMC, njenge-solubility yayo kunye neempawu ze-gelation.

Ekutyeni, i-HPMC isetyenziswa njenge-thickener, emulsifier, kunye ne-stabilizer, phakathi kweminye imisebenzi. Ingasetyenziselwa ukuphucula ukuthungwa kweemveliso zokutya ezifana neesosi, izinxibo, kunye neempahla ezibhakiweyo. I-HPMC ikwasetyenziswa njengento yokugquma iipilisi kunye nee-capsules kushishino lwamayeza, kunye nakwimveliso yokhathalelo lomntu kunye neemveliso zokuthambisa.

I-HPMC ngokuqhelekileyo ithathwa njengekhuselekile ukuba isetyenziswe kwaye ivunyiwe ukuba isetyenziswe ekutyeni zii-arhente ezininzi ezilawulayo kwihlabathi jikelele, kuquka i-US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) kunye ne-European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Nangona kunjalo, njengazo zonke izongezo zokutya, kubalulekile ukusebenzisa i-HPMC ngokuhambelana namanqanaba acetyiswayo kunye nemimiselo yokuqinisekisa ukhuseleko lwayo.
