Thaumatin B (Cat No.: I040005) is a naturally occurring sweet-tasting protein derived from the Thaumatococcus daniellii plant. It is part of the thaumatin family, known for its intense sweetness, which is significantly higher than sucrose. Thaumatin B functions as a natural flavor modifier and sweetener in the food and beverage industry. Unlike artificial sweeteners, it has a delayed onset of sweetness with a lingering aftertaste. It is also used in pharmaceutical formulations and cosmetics for its taste-masking properties. Thaumatin B is heat-stable and water-soluble.
