FAQs
What is anhydrous citric acid made from?
Microbial fermentation uses sugary substances to ferment fruit essence and produce citric acid. This method is more eco-friendly, sustainable, more cost-effective, and yields high quality but takes more time, needs complex culture conditions, and requires resources for wastewater treatment.
On the other hand, chemical synthesis, which can either be through oxidation or hydrogenation, is widely used but requires more cost and also requires resources for wastewater treatment.
N-essentials' anhydrous citric acid is produced from corn through microbial fermentation. It has exactly the same chemical composition and function as the citrus derived form. This corn-derived form must be avoided by those with a corn allergy.
