Translation of "Steviolglycoside" in English

The Authority expressed in its opinion the ADI for steviol glycosides as steviol equivalents.

What were the approval conditions of Steviol glycosides?

From its leaves the Steviolglycosides are extracted.

Steviol glycosides are often mixed with chemicals or other refined and unnatural substances.

Steviol glycosides are sweeteners extracted from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni plant, which originates in Paraguay.

Steviolglycoside (Rebaudioside) extracted from Stevia-Plant is approved since 2nd december 2011 in the EU as food additive E960!

Steviol glycosides are non-caloric sweet-tasting constituents which may be used to replace sucrose in the production of mustard thus allowing for an extension of its shelf life and its microbiological stability (decreasing the content of sugar prevents the process of fermentation for which sugar is a substrate) whilst retaining the demanded organoleptic properties of the product.

Exposure calculations carried out by Rijksinstituut voor Volksgezondheid en Milieu in 2015 showed that the proposed extension of use, assuming a market share of 25 % for steviol glycosides containing products and assuming 100 % brand loyalty, did not affect the 95th percentile of exposure in young children aged two to six years in the Netherlands.

Steviol glycosides are non-caloric sweet-tasting constituents and may be used to replace caloric sugars in certain beverages, thus reducing the caloric content of those products.

Since the extension of use of Acesulfame K (E 950), Cyclamic acid and its Na and Ca salts (E 952), Saccharin and its Na, K and Ca salts (E 954), Sucralose (E 955), Neohesperidine DC (E 959) and Steviol glycosides (E 960) to all other energy-reduced similar fruit or vegetable spreads constitutes an update of that list which is not liable to have an effect on human health, it is not necessary to seek the opinion of the European Food Safety Authority.

Several other related steviol glycosides that may be generated as a result of the production process, but do not occur naturally in the Stevia rebaudiana plant have been identified in small amounts (0,10 to 0,37 % w/w).

However, the specifications laid down in the Annex for additives steviol glycosides (E 960) and basic methacrylate copolymer (E 1205) shall apply from the date of entry into force of this Regulation.

Steviol glycosides are intense sweeteners extracted from the leaves of the stevia plant (Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni).

Ingredients: Sweeteners (maltitol, sorbitol, steviol glycosides), stabilizer (gum arabic), liquorice extract, ammonium chloride, flavourings, elderberry extract, vegetable oils (coconut, palm*), glazing agent (carnauba wax).

Not only the abovementioned steviol glycosides, but also other substances, with a bitter taste or aftertaste, can in foodstuffs or semi-luxury foods sharply reduce the quality of these (e.g. flavonoid glycosides and limonoids in citrus juices, artificial sweeteners such as aspartame or saccharin, hydrophobic amino acid and/or peptides in cheese), even though substances with such taste directions may be desirable in moderation and characteristic of such foodstuffs or semi-luxury foods (e.g. caffeine in tea and coffee, quinine in so-called bitter lemon drinks, hop extracts in beer).

The steviol glycosides alone (V2) led to improvement in the sweet impression, but also to increased bitterness in the aftertaste.

Ingredients: Sweeteners (maltitol, sorbitol, steviol glycosides), stabilizer (gum arabic), liquorice extract, elderberry extract, flavourings, vegetable oils (coconut, palm*), glazing agent (carnauba wax).
