Xylitol, a popular sugar alcohol known for its sweetness and dental benefits, is derived from corncobs, a rich source of xylose. The process begins with the hydrolysis of corncobs, breaking down complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars like xylose. This xylose is then fermented by specific microorganisms, such as strains of Candida yeast or Streptomyces bacteria, to produce xylitol. After fermentation, purification methods like filtration and crystallization are employed to refine the xylitol. The resulting product offers a natural and sustainable alternative to traditional sugars, used widely in food, beverages, and pharmaceuticals. EC number:201-788-0 Molecular Formula:C5H12O5 CAS No:87-99-0
