The Uses of glycerol monolaurate
glycerol monolaurate is a monoglyceride emulsifier produced by the esterification of glycerin and lauric acid. It has a melting point of 56°c, a maximum iodine value of 0.5, and a saponification value of 200–206. In a highly purified form, it shows antimicrobial properties against microorganisms with the exception of gram-negative organisms. It is effective against gram-negative organisms when formulated with bha or edta. It is used in baked goods, whipped toppings, frosting, glazes, and cheese products.
The Uses of glycerol monolaurate
Emulsifying and dispersing agent for food products, oils, waxes, and solvents; antifoaming agent; dry-cleaning soap base.
