  Alitame   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Alitame ist ein kalorienarmer Süßstoff, der aus zwei Eiweißbausteinen, der L-Asparaginsäure und dem D-Alanin besteht.
Je nach Anwendung ist Alitame 2000- bis 3000-mal süßer als Zucker, hat einen sehr zuckerähnlichen Geschmack und ist koch- und backfest.
Alitame ist in der Europäischen Union noch nicht als Lebensmittelzusatzstoff zugelassen.

 842. Alitame (WHO Food Additives Series 35)
Faecal radioactivity was a mixture of unchanged alitame (CP-54,802) and alanine tetramethylthietane amide (CP-57,207).
Alitame was relatively stable, with only slight evidence of degradation after prolonged incubation for 24 h, which was not considered to be due to enzyme activity.
The results indicated that alitame, at both the 0.3% and 1% dose levels, was a weak inducer of hepatic enzymes, which was accompanied in females by a decrease in body-weight gain and an increase in relative liver weight.

 Alitame stability in chewing gum by encapsulation - Patent 4997659
Also, the Alitame may be incorporated in a physically separate part of the gum, such as a center fill, a part of a rolling compound, or a part of a panning composition.
Alitame is a high-potency sweetener with a chemical composition of L-.alpha.-Aspartyl-N-(2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-thietanyl)-D-alaninamide hydrate.

Alitame is similar to aspartame in that both are aspartic acid based sweeteners.
Since Alitame is more stable at higher pH's than aspartame, it would be thought that the avoidance of basic fillers such as calcium carbonate would not be necessary to improve the stability of Alitame in chewing gum.
F., the percentage of the originally present Alitame remaining in the gum is at least 20% greater than the percentage which would have remained had the gum not been formulated taking into account these considerations.

 Alitame   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Alitame (brand name Aclame™) is similar to Aspartame in that it is made from amino acids, namely L-aspartic acid and D-alanine, along with a novel amine.
The aspartic acid component of alitame is metabolized normally while the alanine amide passes through the body with minimal metabolic changes.
Although alitame has petitioned the US since 1986 for use in a broad range of foods and beverages, as of 2005, it still has not been approved for use.

 Low-Calorie Sweeteners on the Horizon
Alitame is such an intense sweetener, its caloric contribution to the diet is insignificant.
Applications: Alitame has the potential to be used in almost all areas where sweeteners are presently used -- e.g., baked goods and baking mixes, hot and cold beverages, dry beverage mixes, milk products, frozen desserts and mixes, fruit preparations, chewing gums and candies, tabletop sweeteners, toiletries and pharmaceuticals.
Status: A petition for alitame's use in a broad range of foods and beverages has been filed in the U.S. Alitame is approved for use in a variety of food and beverage products in Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and the People’s Republic of China.

 Alitame (JECFA Food Additives Series 50)
Alitame is an intense sweetener, with a sweetness potency 2000 times greater than that of sucrose.
Alitame is prepared by a multistep synthesis involving the reaction between two intermediates, (S)-[2,5-dioxo-(4-thiazolidine)] acetic acid and (R)-2-amino-N-(2,2,4,4-tetramethyl-3-thietanyl) propanamide.
Alitame was considered by the Committee at its forty-fourth and forty-sixth meetings (Annex 1, references 116 and 122).

 .: Intense Sweeteners: Further sweeteners - Sweeteners from Palatinit   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Alitame is approximately 2,000 times sweeter than sugar and is therefore needed only in very small doses.
Because of its good heat stability, Alitame is suitable for baking and cooking and, like other sweeteners, it is toothfriendly and suitable for diabetics.
Alitame is used for example in table-top sweeteners, drinks, dairy products, desserts, bread, cakes and pastries, canned fruit, sweets and chewing-gums, but it is only approved in Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and China.

 Food Product Design: Expanded Options for Sweetening Low-Calorie Foods
Alitame is reported to have good stability at elevated temperatures and over a broad pH range.
Due to its stability, alitame is recommended for use in hard and soft candies, heat-pasteurized foods and in neutral pH foods processed at high temperatures, such as sweet, baked goods.
One of the patents reports that at least 40% of the original alitame concentration remained after eight weeks of storage at 85°F. A food additive petition for use of alitame in a broad spectrum of product applications was filed with FDA in 1986.

 The Secret to Good Tasting Light Foods and Beverages   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Now with the addition of aspartame, acesulfame potassium, neotame and sucralose, as well as the possible approval of other low-calorie sweeteners such as alitame and cyclamate, a "multiple sweetener approach" is being utilized, providing consumers with new product and taste choices.
In July 2002, the FDA approved the use of neotame as a sweetening ingredient in any food or beverage product sold in the US Neotame tastes very similar to sugar, is sweeter than other no-calorie sweeteners and is approximately 30 times sweeter than aspartame, and 7,000-13,000 times sweeter than sugar.

 Alitame - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Like aspartame, alitame is an aspartic acid-containing dipeptide.
Most dipeptides are not sweet, but the unexpected discovery of aspartame in 1965 led to a search for similar compounds that shared its sweetness.

 51F-3 The Effect of pH, Temperature and Reactants on the Thermal and Non-thermal Degradation of Alitame and Sucralose   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Alitame and sucralose are alternative high-intensity sweeteners that could impart greater stability in reduced calorie formulations, but little data exists about their stability.
METHODS: Thermal degradation of sucralose, alitame and combinations of these sweeteners with reactants were studied at several pH levels and temperatures using HPLC methodology.
At 100C the stability of sucralose was greater than alitame at pH 3 and 7.
