FAQ
What is 2,6-ditertiarybutylparacresol (DTBPC)?
2,6-ditertiarybutylparacresol (DTBPC) is a
synthetic antioxidant that is commonly used in the food and pharmaceutical industries to prevent
oxidation and extend the shelf life of products. It is a highly effective antioxidant that works by
inhibiting the formation of free radicals, which can cause food to spoil or degrade over
time.
How does DTBPC benefit food products?
DTBPC benefits food products by preventing
oxidation, which can cause food to spoil or degrade over time. It helps to extend the shelf life of
products, maintain their quality and freshness, and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. DTBPC is
commonly used in a wide range of food products, including oils, fats, baked goods, dairy products,
and meat products.
Is DTBPC safe for consumption?
Yes, DTBPC is considered safe for
consumption by regulatory agencies around the world, including the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) in the United States and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) in Europe. Extensive
studies have been conducted on the safety of DTBPC, and it has been shown to have a low toxicity
profile and no adverse effects on human health when consumed in reasonable amounts.
What are
the applications of DTBPC in the pharmaceutical industry?
In the pharmaceutical industry,
DTBPC is commonly used as an antioxidant and preservative in a wide range of medications and
supplements. It helps to prevent the degradation of active ingredients, maintain the stability of
pharmaceutical products, and extend their shelf life. DTBPC is particularly useful in formulations
that are sensitive to oxidation, such as oils, emulsions, and suspensions.
How can I
incorporate DTBPC into my food or pharmaceutical products?
DTBPC is typically added to food
or pharmaceutical products during the manufacturing process. It is often included in the formulation
of products as an ingredient, or it can be used as a processing aid to help protect products during
storage and transport. The appropriate usage level of DTBPC will depend on the specific application
and product formulation, so it is important to consult with a food technologist or pharmacist to
determine the optimal dosage for your products.
