Food grade sodium hexametaphosphate, a high-quality food additive

 When it comes to food additives, most people hear about it. Maybe you always want to avoid food additives, but you never understand its mystery. As a commonly used food additive, sodium hexametaphosphate is a high-quality food improver with its performance meeting requirements and good safety. The following will uncover the mystery of the food additive sodium hexametaphosphate.


Food grade sodium hexametaphosphate is a phosphate produced by thermal phosphoric acid. Sodium hexametaphosphate is commonly used in the list of food additives. Is the food additive sodium hexametaphosphate safe? In fact, the safety of food additive sodium hexametaphosphate itself is relatively high. Because the world uses uniform food additive safety assessment methods and standards, its management is implemented in a real-time dynamic supervision. Its management includes the Health and Family Planning Commission of the People's Republic of China and the State Food and Drug Administration, and the evaluation of its safety is handed over to the Food Safety Risk Assessment Center.


How is the safety evaluation of the food additive sodium hexametaphosphate performed?


my country has a unified food safety toxicity evaluation procedure and method, which is revised according to the provisions of the United Nations Codex Alimentarius Commission. There are about four stages of toxicity evaluation: acute toxicity test, genetic toxicity test, sub-chronic toxicity test, and chronic toxicity test. After four tests, there is no toxicity before evaluation and selection as food additives. Through these four tests, determine a maximum non-effect dose, the intake will not produce toxicity, and obtain a maximum daily intake without any toxic manifestations.


In addition, not anyone or any company can produce the food additive sodium hexametaphosphate. It is necessary to supervise and evaluate its technology and overall management level, and only after passing the evaluation and issuing a license, can food additives be produced.


With the advancement of science, people's understanding and research on things are constantly deepening. Sodium hexametaphosphate is used in different foods, and the scope of use and dosage are different due to different purposes, such as: for canned food, juice (fruit) beverages, vegetable protein beverages, the maximum usage amount is 1.0g/kg. Aquatic products, dairy products, poultry products, meat products, ice cream, instant noodles, the maximum use amount is 5.0g/kg. Therefore, no matter what kind of food it is used in, it must be added strictly in accordance with the relevant dosage and range of national food additives.
