Neosperidin dihydrochalcone Function
Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, sometimes abbreviated to neohesperidin DC or simply NHDC, is an artificial sweetener derived from citrus.Neosperidin dihydrochalcone (NHDC), a derivative of dihydrochalcone , is a new sweetener. It has a clean sweet taste and a good flavor
1.As a flavour enhancer, NHDC is used in a wide range of products. It is noted particularly for enhancing sensory effects.An example of this is 'creaminess' in dairy foods such as yogurt and ice cream;

3. Used for livestock feed as a means of reducing feeding time;
4. Other products NHDC can be found in may include a wide variety of alcoholic beverages(andnon-alcoholic), savoury food, toothpaste, mouthwash and condiments such as ketchup and
mayonnaise.
Neosperidin dihydrochalcone Application:
1.Sweetness enhancer: used in juice beverages, milk beverage, wines, backery products, feed areca, etc.
2.Sweetener for dietary supplements: applicable for functional foods, health care products, and dietary supplements as alternative sweetener.
3.Bitterness masking for pharmaceuticals: used to animal feed. Increase the sweetness over 40% when NHDC used in blends of solium saccharin, and mask the bitter taste of saccharin to make the sweet taste is more pure, and reduce the cost.
