  2. Sodium lactate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_lactate

    Sodium lactate is the sodium salt of lactic acid, and has a mild saline taste. It is produced by fermentation of a sugar source, such as corn or beets, and then, by neutralizing the resulting lactic acid [4] to create a compound having the formula NaC 3 H 5 O 3 . Sodium lactate, in the form of Ringer's lactate solution, is used as a medication ...

  3. Lactic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactic_acid

    Lactic acid is chiral, consisting of two enantiomers. One is known as L -lactic acid, ( S )-lactic acid, or (+)-lactic acid, and the other, its mirror image, is D -lactic acid, ( R )-lactic acid, or (−)-lactic acid. A mixture of the two in equal amounts is called DL -lactic acid, or racemic lactic acid. Lactic acid is hygroscopic.

  4. Potassium lactate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_lactate

    Potassium lactate is a compound with formula KC 3 H 5 O 3. It is the potassium salt of lactic acid and appears as a clear, hygroscopic, syrupy liquid suspension that is typically 60% solids. [1] The substance can be concentrated to contain up to 78% solids. [2] It is produced by neutralizing lactic acid, which is fermented from a sugar source.

  5. Sodium acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_acetate

    Sodium acetate may be added to food as a seasoning, sometimes in the form of sodium diacetate, a one-to-one complex of sodium acetate and acetic acid, [10] given the E-number E262. It is often used to give potato chips a salt and vinegar flavour, and may be used as a substitute for vinegar itself on potato chips as it does not add moisture to ...

  6. Lactic acid fermentation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactic_acid_fermentation

    Lactic acid fermentation is a metabolic process by which glucose or other six-carbon sugars (also, disaccharides of six-carbon sugars, e.g. sucrose or lactose) are converted into cellular energy and the metabolite lactate, which is lactic acid in solution. It is an anaerobic fermentation reaction that occurs in some bacteria and animal cells ...

  7. Ethyl acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethyl_acetate

    Ethyl acetate (systematically ethyl ethanoate, commonly abbreviated EtOAc, ETAC or EA) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 CO 2 CH 2 CH 3, simplified to C 4 H 8 O 2.This colorless liquid has a characteristic sweet smell (similar to pear drops) and is used in glues, nail polish removers, and the decaffeination process of tea and coffee.

  8. Magnesium stearate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnesium_stearate

    Magnesium stearate is the chemical compound with the formula Mg (C. 18H. 35O. 2) 2. It is a soap, consisting of salt containing two equivalents of stearate (the anion of stearic acid) and one magnesium cation (Mg 2+ ). Magnesium stearate is a white, water-insoluble powder. Its applications exploit its softness, insolubility in many solvents ...
