PURAC HS 88

PURAC HS 88 is a natural L-Lactic acid produced through fermentation from sugar. It has a mild acid character and is used in many food applications. PURAC HS 88 functions are pH-regulation and as a natural constituent in foods. It helps regulate the pH of foods and provides benefits as a natural acidulant. As a chiral intermediate, PURAC HS 88 can also be used in some food processing applications. With an assay of 87.5-88.5% and high L(+) content, PURAC HS 88 is a heat stable option for maintaining acidity in foods during processing and increasing shelf life without artificial ingredients.
