13 Jul 2016 --- At IFT 2016, PLT Health Solutions will be featuring PhytoShield Flavor Enhancer, a 100% naturally-derived technology based on decades of flavor enhancement experience - that at the same time delivers broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties that translate into better overall product quality and a longer shelf life.
As a form of 'self-preservation' PhytoShield offers broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity,effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, molds and yeast. The anti-microbial efficacy of PhytoShield is created by a synergistic reaction of bioflavonoids, flavor components, polyphenols and organic acids present in the formulation. PhytoShield grades are stable at pH levels ranging from 2 to 10 and temperatures up to 130 C - meaning broad ranging applicability and easy formulation with minimal changes to your processing.
Because PhytoShield is a natural flavor technology, it offers you a range of options in the development of a cleaner label. Low use rates and formulation-friendly physical characteristics make PhytoShield easy to incorporate in foods and beverages.
