It can be obtained by reduction of glucose, changing the aldehyde group to a hydroxyl group. Most sorbitol is made from corn syrup, but it is also found in apples, pears, peaches, and prunes. It is synthesized by sorbitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and converted to fructose by succinate dehydrogenase and sorbitol dehydrogenase. Succinate dehydrogenase is an enzyme complex that participates in the citric acid cycle.Appearance: White crystalline powderUse: Used in the chewing gum, candy, the sweetened bean paste, and so forth sugar free products.

Sorbitol is about 60% as sweet as sucrose (table sugar).2. Medical application:(1) Laxative,As is the case with othersugar alcohols, foods containing sorbitol can cause gastrointestinal distress. Sorbitol can be used as alaxativewhen taken orally or as anenema. Sorbitol works as a laxative by drawing water into thelarge intestine, stimulatingbowel movements.( 2)Other medical applications:Sorbitol is used in bacterial culture media to distinguish the pathogenicEscherichia coliO157:H7from most other strains ofE. coli, because it is usually unable to ferment sorbitol, unlike 93% of knownE. colistrains.3.Health care, food, and cosmetic uses:Sorbitol often is used in moderncosmeticsas ahumectantandthickener. It is also used inmouthwashandtoothpaste. Some transparentgelscan be made only with sorbitol, because of its highrefractive index.Sorbitol is used as acryoprotectantadditive (mixed withsucroseand sodium polyphosphates) in the manufacture ofsurimi, a processed fish paste. It is also used as a humectant in somecigarettes.Beyond its use as a sugar substitute in reduced-sugar foods, Sorbitol is also used as a humectant in cookies and low-moisture foods like peanut butter and fruit preserves. In baking, it is also valuable because it acts as aplasticizer, and slows down thestalingprocess.4. Miscellaneous uses:A mixture of sorbitol andpotassium nitratehas found some success as an amateur solidFACTORY PICTURE:
