Product Description
Glycerol monolaurate (GML) is a food additive that is occasionally used in meat products. It is derived from lauric acid, which is a fatty acid found in coconut oil and other vegetable oils. GML is primarily used as an antimicrobial agent and emulsifier in various food products, including meat and poultry.
As an antimicrobial, GML can inhibit the growth of certain bacteria, including species like Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes, which can cause foodborne illnesses. By incorporating GML into meat products, food manufacturers aim to extend the shelf life and enhance the safety of the products.
Moreover, GML can act as an emulsifier, helping to stabilize the emulsion of fat and water in processed meat products. This can improve the texture, moisture retention, and overall quality of the meat products.
The recommended dosage of glycerol monolaurate (GML) used in meat products can vary depending on several factors, including the specific application, regulatory guidelines, and desired effects. It's important to note that I don't have access to the most up-to-date regulatory information since my knowledge cutoff is in September 2021. Therefore, it's always best to consult the relevant food safety authorities and regulations in your country for the most accurate and current information.
In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has listed GML as a food ingredient generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used in accordance with good manufacturing practices. According to the FDA's regulations, GML can be used in meat and poultry products as an antimicrobial agent at levels not to exceed current good manufacturing practices. However, specific dosage recommendations may vary depending on the intended use and the specific meat product.
In general, the usage levels of GML in meat products are often expressed as a percentage of the total product weight or as parts per million (ppm). The exact dosage can be influenced by factors such as the target pathogens, desired shelf life extension, and other formulation considerations.
