Rebaudioside d inclusion complex: SuntoryRecent Research Landscape

Poor solubility of high-intensity sweeteners causes precipitation and inconsistent flavor profiles in beverages, which is mitigated through engineered aqueous dispersion and stabilization methods. Controlling the physical state of Rebaudioside D allows for higher concentration formulations without sensory or stability defects.

What technical problems is Suntory addressing in Rebaudioside d inclusion complex?

Poor aqueous solubility

(5)evidences

Rebaudioside D suffers from poor dissolution and crystallization tendencies in water. Overcoming this physical limitation is necessary to achieve the concentrations required for commercial beverage applications.

Unpleasant sweetener aftertaste

(4)evidences

Rebaudioside D suffers from extremely low solubility in water which prevents its use in concentrated beverage syrups. Overcoming this physical limitation is necessary to achieve desired sweetness levels in commercial food applications.

Sweetness intensity loss

(3)evidences

The loss of perceived sweetness over time or during processing in beverage formulations. Preventing this reduction ensures consistent sensory profiles and product shelf-life stability.
