Description

Disodium Nucleotide CAS NO 12111-11-4 is a high-purity nucleotide salt, primarily composed of disodium inosinate (IMP) and disodium guanylate (GMP), which are essential flavor enhancers. This compound is critical for delivering the savory umami taste, significantly amplifying and harmonizing flavors in processed foods. It is a fundamental ingredient for manufacturers in the food and beverage, nutraceutical, and biotechnology sectors seeking to improve product palatability and reduce sodium content.

Application

• Food & Beverage Flavor Enhancer: A key component in savory snacks, instant noodles, soups, sauces, seasonings, and processed meats to impart and intensify umami taste.
• Sodium Reduction Agent: Used in low-sodium or "healthy" food formulations to maintain robust flavor perception while reducing overall salt (NaCl) content.
• Nutraceutical & Dietary Supplement: Incorporated into health supplements for its potential role in supporting metabolic and cellular functions as a nucleotide source.
• Cell Culture & Biotechnology: Serves as a component in specialized cell culture media and biochemical research applications.
• Animal Feed Additive: Used to enhance the palatability of feed, improving feed intake and growth performance in livestock and aquaculture.
• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Employed as a taste-masking or stabilizing agent in certain pharmaceutical preparations.

Quality Control

Our Disodium Nucleotide is manufactured and tested to meet stringent quality standards, including FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) and JECFA specifications, ensuring safety for food applications. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing for purity, composition, and microbiological safety. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting all test results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent caking and degradation due to moisture absorption.
