Tagatose Market to Incur Rapid Extension During 2017 - 2025

Tagatose Market: Introduction

Tagatose also known by D-tagatose or pseudo-fructose is a naturally occurring ketohexose, an epimer of isomerized D-fructose. Tagatose is around 90% as sweet as sucrose in a 10% aqueous solution yet provide low-calorie around 1.5 calories per gram while sugar provides around 3.9 calories per gram, thus making Tagatose a low carbohydrate functional sweetener. Due to its low-calorie count per gram, tagatose has a very low effect on blood glucose and insulin levels as compared to sugar. Moreover, physical bulk and sweetness of tagatose being similar to table sugar have made tagatose more preferred over its alternative thus providing an increased traction in the market which is anticipated to drive the growth of global tagatose market over the forecast period. Tagatose is primarily used as a food additive and is used as the sweetener, texturizer, stabilizer, humectant, and formulation aid. Tagatose is found naturally in milk and certain fruits, however, for large scale production, tagatose is produced through the enzymatic process from lactose which is disaccharide sugar found in milk. The functional sweetener market has few buyers and sellers, thereby companies are focusing on cost optimization in order to increase productivity.

Moreover, manufacturing non-sugar and low-calorie sweetener involves a standard extraction process. Companies in the sweetener market have patent extraction processes for the same. This is further supported by stringent government regulations due to health issues.
