Definitions
- the present invention relates to N- [N- (3,3-dimethylbutyl) -L- ⁇ -aspartyl] -L-phenylalanine 1-methyl ester (Neotem N eotame; hereinafter referred to as “NM”). ) And powder Acesu Lfame K (hereinafter abbreviated as “ACE-K”) as active ingredients, and a powder sweetener composition having excellent solubility. About things.
- the sweetness intensity of the high sweetness synthetic sweetener NM is about 100,000 times that of sucrose in weight ratio (Tokuhyohei 8-50032206). Further, details of its sweetness characteristics have not been reported, but according to the knowledge of the present applicant, the taste (i.e., feeling sweetness as quickly as sucrose when included in the mouth) is extremely high. Weak and aftertaste (sweetness felt slower than sucrose when in the mouth) is extremely strong. In addition, the astringency is strong. Therefore, ACE-K is also a synthetic sweetener, while sucrose has a poorer balance of sweetness characteristics than sucrose, which is generally used as a standard for evaluating sweetness characteristics.
- a spartame hereafter abbreviated as “A PM”) is about 200 times as much as sucrose by weight, as compared to A PM.
- the sweetness quality is even worse, such as Various improvements have been proposed, including an improvement in taste quality (US Pat. No. 4,158,068, corresponding to Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-151262, etc.).
- the sweetness characteristics of APM are weaker than sucrose, which is the standard for evaluation of sweetness characteristics, and the aftertaste is strong.
- NM also suffers from a problem with its dissolution properties, namely, the industrially produced powder (crystal) of NM has poor solubility when trying to dissolve it in water (ie, It is difficult to dissolve smoothly because it is easily formed, otherwise the dissolution rate is low. Poor solubility, such as formation of lumps, reduces the production efficiency of, for example, soft drinks and other foods and beverages containing NM for sweetening, which is a significant disadvantage in industrial production.
- an object of the present invention is to provide an excellent method for improving the solubility of NM.
- the present inventors have conducted intensive studies in order to achieve the object described in the preceding paragraph. As a result, it is obvious that NM does not form lumps when dissolved by mixing with ACE-K.
- the present inventor found an unexpected fact that the dissolution rate was higher than the dissolution rate of the product, that is, the solubility was generally improved, and based on such findings, the present invention was completed.
- the powder NM which is one of the active ingredients of the sweetener composition of the present invention, is not particularly limited in its crystal form.
- a known crystal also referred to as an A-type crystal
- C-type crystal described below. Any of them may be used, but for the purpose of the present invention, the latter is remarkably superior to the former.
- the known crystal structure of NM disclosed in WO95Z36989 is described therein as IR spectrum data.
- this crystal is a monohydrate as a result of single crystal structure analysis, and when measured by powder X-ray diffraction, at least 6.0 °, 24.8 °, It was confirmed that diffraction X-rays had characteristic peaks at diffraction angles of 8.2 ° and 16.5 ° (2, Cu K line). Then, the present inventors have referred to this crystal as an A-type crystal for convenience.
- the present inventors have found that the water content of the dried A-type crystal is usually 3 to 6% by weight (including water of crystallization).
- the water content is reduced to less than 3%, new crystals of N— (3,3-dimethylbutyl) —APM having improved solubility from which water of crystallization has been desorbed have been found.
- the crystals are referred to as C-type crystals.
- This C-type crystal has a diffraction angle different from that of the ⁇ -type crystal, that is, at least 7.1 °, 19.8 °, 1 It shows characteristic X-ray diffraction peaks at diffraction angles (20) of 7.3 ° and 17.7 °. See Reference Examples 1-3 below.
- the mixing ratio (use ratio) of NM and ACE-K in the sweetener composition of the present invention is 10 to 97% by weight as the ratio of ACE-K to both. If the use ratio of ACE-K is 10% by weight or less or 97% by weight or more, the dissolution promoting effect of ACE-K decreases.
- the sweetener composition of the present invention may be a conventional high-intensity sweetener within a range that does not impair the solubility of the improved NM according to the present invention for the purpose of improving the usability or the quality of sweetness depending on the use.
- diluents and excipients such as sugar alcohols, oligosaccharides and dietary fiber, or other high-intensity synthetic sweeteners such as aspartame, alitame, saccharin, etc. Can be blended.
- the diluent / excipient also includes low-intensity sweeteners such as sucrose and glucose.
- NM aqueous solution 100 g was prepared (dissolved at 60 ° C.) so that the NM concentration was 3% by weight. Then, it was cooled from 60 ° C. to 30 ° C. with stirring for 5 minutes. When the liquid temperature reached 30 ° C., white crystals started crystallization. The liquid temperature was maintained at 30 ° C, and after aging overnight, the crystals were collected by filtration.
- FIG. 1 shows the obtained powder X-ray diffraction pattern.
- this wet crystal shows characteristic diffraction peaks at least at 6.0 °, 24.8 °, 8.2 ° and 16.5 °, and is a ⁇ -type crystal.
- the dried Form A crystals having a water content of 5% by weight were continuously dried in a vacuum dryer until the water content became 0.8% by weight.
- FIG. 2 shows the obtained powder X-ray diffraction pattern.
- the dried crystals showed characteristic diffraction peaks at least at 7.1 °, 19.8 °, 17.3 ° and 17.7 °. As mentioned earlier, this crystal is a C-type crystal.
- the required dissolution time (minutes) for each sample is also shown in Table 1 below.
- the NMC type crystal has a higher solubility in the form of being blended in the mixture (sweetener composition of the present invention) than in the case of the single product. Is remarkably improved.
- the sweetness of NM and ACE-K is about 10, 000 and about 200 times that of sucrose. From this point of view, the time required to dissolve 1 g of the sample of the mixture should be compared with the time required to dissolve the amount of NM necessary to obtain the same sweetness.
- — K has the effect of promoting the dissolution of NM, for example: That is, the sweetness of 1 g of the mixture containing 50% of ACE-K powder is equal to the sweetness of 0.5 g of NM alone, but the dissolving time of the former is 4 minutes, while that of the latter is about 60 minutes. Minutes, and there is a significant difference between the two.
- the dissolution time of the mixture of NM and ACE-K was measured in the same manner as in Experimental Example 1.
- the sample amount of the mixed product and the sample amount of the NM alone product (NMA type crystal) were the same as in Experimental Example 1.
- the required dissolution time (min) for each sample is shown in Table 2 below.
- Experimental example 3 (NMC type crystal alone and ACE-K powder separately charged): As NM, the same NM crystal as in Experimental Example 1 was used, and ACE-1K also used the same ACE-K powder (average particle size of about 20 // m) as in Experimental Example 1. The time required for dissolution was measured as in 1. That is, 0.5 g of each of them was separated by 0.5 g (total 1.0 g), and they were simultaneously injected into the dissolution tester without mixing them beforehand (separate input). The results are shown in Table 3 below. For reference, the time required for dissolving 0.5 g of NMC type crystals alone (Experimental Example 1) is also shown. Table 3: Time required for dissolution in separate injection of NM and ACE-K (min)
