COMPOSITION OF MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE

October 27th 2006 14:06
Monosodium glutamate (MSG, Vetsin) is a monosodium salt (with one sodium ion) of glutamic acid. Chemically, it is HOOC-CH2-CH2-CH(NH2)-COONa. It’s widely used as a taste enhancer in place of vinegar derivatives in soups, sauces, etc. because of its pleasantly tangy taste. Recent scientific studies have shown that this salt does a lot more stimulate the taste bud. Excess consumption is known to cause a disorder called as Chinese restaurant syndrome.
