Food Grade Additive Sodium Lactate Dl-Sodium Lactate

Product Description

Product Description

Sodium Lactate 

    Sodium Lactate is the sodium salt of lactic acid, typically appearing as a colorless or slightly yellow viscous liquid. It is produced commercially through the neutralization of lactic acid with sodium hydroxide. As a natural and safe ingredient, it is highly valued for its excellent humectant (moisturizing) properties, effective pH buffering capacity, and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. These characteristics, combined with its good solubility in water, make it a versatile and multifunctional ingredient widely adopted in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and medical industries.

Application

Key Functions in the Food Industry

Versatile Role in Cosmetics and Personal Care

Applications in Pharmaceutical and Medical Fields

    In the food sector, Sodium Lactate serves as a highly effective humectant, flavor enhancer, and pH regulator. It is extensively used in meat and poultry products to improve water-holding capacity, thereby increasing yield, enhancing juiciness, and extending shelf life by inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Its mild salty taste also allows for partial sodium chloride reduction in some formulations. Additionally, it finds application in dairy products, dressings, and baked goods for moisture retention and shelf-life extension.

    Within cosmetics and skincare, Sodium Lactate is prized as a powerful humectant and moisturizing factor. It is a key component in lotions, creams, serums, and hair care products, where it helps attract and bind water to the skin and hair, improving hydration, elasticity, and overall feel. Furthermore, it functions as a gentle exfoliant and a reliable pH adjuster, helping to maintain the optimal acidity of formulations for skin compatibility and product stability.

    In pharmaceuticals, it is utilized as a pH buffer and humectant in topical formulations such as creams and ointments. Most significantly, in the medical field, Sodium Lactate solution is administered intravenously as part of Ringer's lactate solution (Lactated Ringer's), a balanced electrolyte fluid used for fluid resuscitation, surgery, and burn treatment to correct dehydration and metabolic acidosis. It also serves as a buffering agent in peritoneal dialysis solutions.
