Glycerin Monolauric(GML) E471
CAS #: 142-18-7
E No. : E471
Formula: C15H30O4
Grade: Food Grade
Shelf Life: 18 months
Application in Meat Products
GML has a good inhibitory effect on Gram-positive bacteria such as Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium botulinum, Bacillus subtilis, and Streptococcus, as well as Gram-negative bacteria such as Helicobacter pylori, Salmonella, and Escherichia coli. Especially, its inhibitory effect on Gram-positive bacteria is the strongest. These types of bacteria are common spoilage bacteria in meat products. Moreover, GML has good thermal stability. Regular pasteurization and high-temperature sterilization will not reduce its preservative effect. Therefore, GML is highly suitable for the preservation and freshness enhancement of meat products.
GML‘s advantages
- Strong antibacterial effect. GML has a very strong inhibitory effect on the main spoilage and harmful microorganisms in meat products, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium botulinum, and Listeria.
- Good safety. GML is a natural type of food additive and can be decomposed in the human body without leaving residues.
- Multi-functional. GML has both emulsifying and antibacterial functions. It can improve the texture and taste of meat products while inhibiting bacteria.
- Good thermal stability. Regular pasteurization and high-temperature sterilization will not reduce the emulsifying and antibacterial effects of GML.
- Good synergistic effect. When GML is combined with Nisin, sodium dehydroacetate, potassium sorbate, and sodium diacetate, it can broaden the antibacterial spectrum and enhance the antibacterial effect.
Usage method and dosage
Usage method: Dissolve GML in hot water at 60-90℃, then mix it into the raw meat. Or, mix it with other additives and directly add it to the raw meat, and stir evenly.
Recommended dosage: There is no limit on the dosage of GML. Considering its effect and the impact on the product’s taste, it is recommended to add 0.1-0.5g/kg of GML to meat products.
