<p>It is intended to newly provide crystals of non-natural stereoisomer salts of monatin which are usable as sweeteners. Because of being stable and having a high degree of sweetness, these crystals are expected as useful as sweeteners or components thereof as well as agents for imparting sweetness to foods and drinks. It is also possible to provide, for example, sweeteners and sweetened foods and drinks with the use of the above salt crystals as novel sweetening substances. These stereoisomer salts include (2S,4R), (2R,4R) and (2R,4S) isomer salts of monatin. Among all, the (2R,4R) isomer salts of monatin are particularly favorable.</p> |
