Feed Flavors and Sweeteners Market Global Research Report by Type (Flavors (
Thaumatin, Aniseed, Milky Vanilla), Sweeteners (Glycyrrhicine, Saccharine,
Thaumatin)), Form, Livestock (Poultry, Swine, Ruminants) and Region - Forecast till 2024
These include hydrogen-peroxide-mediated cell wall linkages, chitinase, [beta]-1,3-glucanase and
thaumatin proteins, phytoalexin accumulation and detoxification and glutathione S-transferase (Cho et al., 2004; Jayakumar et al., 2005).
Gebruers et al., "TLXI, a novel type of xylanase inhibitor from wheat (Triticum aestivum) belonging to the
thaumatin family," Biochemical Journal, vol.
Pravettoni et al., "Identification of grape and wine allergens as an endochitinase 4, a lipid-transfer protein, and a
thaumatin," Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, vol.
Based on Type, market is segregated into Natural Sweeteners, Artificial Sweeteners and others (sorbitol, Tagatose, Luo Han Guo,
Thaumatin, Monatin, Glycyrrhizin and Xylitol).
For example: stevia,
thaumatin, tagatose, and sorbitol among others.
PR-5 proteins have high amino acid homology to sweet tasting protein,
thaumatin, from the South African berry bush Thaumatococcus daniellii [114] and are known as thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs) though none of these proteins have been reported to have a sweet taste.
Thaumatococcus daniellii is harvested from the wild for its fruits, from which a protein based sweetener called
thaumatin is extracted from the arils.
A milieu of potential natural HIS sweetening molecules exist, including brazzein, pentadin, curculin, mabinlin, miraculin, monellin and
thaumatin, all of which are established natural polypeptide/ protein-based sweeteners.
Several other inhibitor families, such as barley, ragi 1 and 2, and
thaumatin, were also suggested[9,1].
