- Product Applications
- Ultralec® G is a source of phospholipids and essential fatty acids.
- It is generally consumed directly as a nutritional supplement.
- Other options include sprinkling it on yogurt and cereals or blending it in smoothies, for example. Ultralec® G is produced through a patented ultrafiltration process that does not use acetone to extract the oil. (Acetone extraction is the typical method for producing a deoiled lecithin). Although the bulk of acetone is stripped from competitive products, residual acetone is always left in the final product.
- As the lecithin ages, acetone reacts through an aldol condensation to form highly odoriferous compounds such as mesityl oxide. Because Ultralec® G avoids the use of acetone, our process eliminates the off flavors and odors often associated with acetone-extracted deoiled lecithin.
