Neotame is an is a non-caloric artificial sweetener, belonging to the world's sixth generation synthetic sweetener.. Neotame is the sweetest synthetic sweetener in the world. Its sweetness is 7,000 to 13,000 times that of ordinary sucrose. It is also the sweetener that tastes closest to sucrose. Neotame has excellent stability in the dry powder state. Under dry and appropriate storage conditions, it can be stored for at least 5 years without deterioration. Because neotame has no hygroscopicity and low energy, it is very suitable as a food sweetener. In 2002, neotame was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration and allowed to be added to food. In October 2003, the Chinese Ministry of Health approved neotame as a sweetener for general use in various foods and beverages.

SWEETNESS
Neotame is the world's most sweet sweetener by far, is also the world's most safe sweetener tastes closest to sucrose.
Neotame pure sweet, is very close to aspartame, no other strong sweet agent, often with the bitterness and metallic taste. Under a variety of conditions, its flavor distribution are no significant difference from aspartame , while the neotame sweet stimulate the formation and sucrose is similar, but compared with aspartame, can feel the sweetness of the initial lag slightly, and the sweet taste of duration slightly long.
Neotame in the human body can be quickly metabolism. The main metabolic pathway is through the body to produce the enzyme in the hydrolysis of methyl ester, the last generation of the defatted neotame and methanol. Neotame in human generated by decomposition of methanol is far not enough to pose a health hazard to the human body.
It can also enhance the flavor of certain foods and beverages, especially acid type fruit flavor (such as orange, lemon and grapes) and cherry flavor. And aspartame is different, neotame and acesulfame, saccharin has no synergistic effect between sweetness, providing more convenience for the new product development of food and beverage manufacturers, because neotame can be used alone, or with other nutritional or non nutritive sweeteners mixed use. Its appearance provides a more flexible solution for sweet food manufacturers. Adding can inhibit the aging of starch in starch food, prolong the shelf life of food products; in the egg, adding inhibited protein denaturation , keep good taste in fish protein rich food such as food.
