Glutamate sodium (lat. natrii glutamas, eng. monosodium glutamate, glutamate sodium) — monosodium salt glutamic acid, a popular food additive E621 (in this capacity also called "flavor enhancer"). Is a white crystalline powder, soluble in water.

Monosodium glutamate can occur in foods naturally (e.g., in soy sauce cheese or Roquefort), or added to them.

Application

It registered as a food additive E621, European countries sometimes referred to as MSG(eng. monosodium glutamate). Annual consumption of monosodium glutamate on the planet has reached 200 000 tonnes. As additives the most commonly applied glutamate sodium, but not potassium or other elements, as it is technologically simpler and the taste of MSG is more pronounced.

Long the time it was believed that glutamate enhances taste sensation by increasing the sensitivity receptor language. In 2002, however, it has been discovered that human language has L-glutamate receptors, which are responsible for a completely separate taste, called minds.

Glutamic acid for the body is a marker of protein: if the food is protein, that is and this amino acid. Accordingly, the taste umami — the way in which the organism finds rich protein food. That is why glutamate is so pleasant to the taste, and uses food industry.

Taste monosodium glutamate in natural products does not differ from the taste of supplements obtained by artificial means.

For food there are supplements optimum taste: this is 0,1-0,3 % by weight for liquid products and soups and up to 0.5-1% in dry products.

Name "flavor enhancer" is an incorrect translation of the English name flavor enhancer — it literally "improver, richer taste."

Action supplements based on the sensitivity of the receptors of the human the body, due to the fact that monosodium glutamate acts on neurotransmitters, thereby increasing the conductivity of the nerve channels and strength of the pulse. The effect of additive lasts about 20 minutes.

In the food industry used condiments in bouillon cubes, seasonings, sauces, canned and frozen foods, potato chips, crackers and other products.
