E472e
E472e is a food ingredient commonly found in many processed foods. It is a synthetic substance produced in a lab rather than being derived from a plant, grain, or dairy product. E472e is used in various food products to enhance their texture, taste, or appearance.
To make E472e, different types of fatty acids are combined with glycerol, a compound that can be derived from natural sources like plants or animals. This process creates an emulsifier that helps ingredients mix together smoothly, preventing them from separating. This ingredient is commonly used in food production to improve the stability and consistency of products.
When checking food labels, you may come across E472e listed as an ingredient in items like bread, cakes, ice cream, and margarine. In these products, E472e acts as an emulsifier to keep the ingredients blended properly and provide a desirable texture. It is also used to extend the shelf life of certain foods, ensuring they stay fresh for longer periods.
