Erythorbic Acid or erythorbate, formerly known as isoAscorbic Acid and D-araboascorbic acid, is a stereoisomer of ascorbic acid.Erythorbic acid, molecular formula C6H806, relative molecular mass 176.13. White to pale yellow crystals that are fairly stable in air in the dry state, but deteriorate rapidly when exposed to the atmosphere in solution. Its antioxidant properties are better than ascorbic acid, and the price is cheap. Although it has no physiological effect of ascorbic acid, it will not hinder the absorption of ascorbic acid by the human body.
And its chemical properties have many similarities with Vc, but as an antioxidant, it has the inimitable advantage that Vc does not have: First, it is superior to the anti-oxidation than Vc, therefore, mixed the Vc, it can effectively protect the properties Vc component in improving the properties have very good results, while protecting the Vc color. Second, higher security, no residue in the human body, participating in metabolism after absorbing by the human body, which can be transformed into Vc partially. In recent years, Chinese medicine takes it as complementary information be used in Vc film, Vc Yinqiao-Vc, and health care products, and obtain the good effect.
