The harm of defoamer

Introduction: many food processing can not be separated from the role of food additives, and defoamer is a kind of food additives, which can be seen in many foods What are the hazards of defoamer? Can defoamer be used? Let's take a look at the safety net Food additives refer to "chemical synthesis or natural substances added into food to improve food quality, color, fragrance and taste, as well as to meet the needs of anticorrosion and processing technology"; meanwhile, it is stipulated that "natural or artificial synthetic food additives added into food to enhance nutritional components belong to the scope of natural nutrients" is called "nutritional fortifiers" Therefore, nutritional enhancers obviously belong to the category of food additives Food defoamer is specially designed for defoaming in food processing industry, also known as DSA-5 defoamer It is a key defoamer in China's food industry, especially in the background of strict control of silicon residue and prohibition of polyether defoamer in many countries, it has more application value; The product has the unique advantages of no impact on the taste of products, rapid defoaming, long-lasting foam suppression, and defoaming efficiency up to 96-98% It is widely used in bean products, dairy industry, pharmaceutical industry, dairy products, beverage industry, sugar industry, soybean protein extraction, soy sauce and vinegar brewing, cigarette holder adhesive and other food industries Due to its superior performance, it is also used in synthetic latex, metal cleaning and other industries Is defoamer edible Since defoamer is a nationally recognized food additive, it means that its use is harmless to human beings However, there are certain dose standards for the use of defoamer in the approved food in China, and different types of defoamer have different uses Not all defoamers can be used in food production Therefore, only those used within the specified range can be used Defoamers can only be used We should pay attention to them What are the hazards of defoamers? As long as the added defoamers are not excessive, there is no harm, but if it is excessive Like other food additives, it is harmful Carcinogenic problems For example, some artificial sweeteners and pigments have been proved to be carcinogenic by animal experiments Acute and chronic poisoning Because the raw materials used in the manufacture of additives are impure, some toxic compounds are polluted, causing people's acute and chronic poisoning The above is a brief introduction of Xiaobian about the use of defoamers You should have some knowledge about it We should dialectically look at the use of defoamers We can't reject them blindly or completely believe in them Therefore, we need to know more about food additives It is convenient for us to correctly understand the problem of defoamer For the problem of food safety, we can also use the food safety detector to detect it Editor in charge: he xianrob
