(MoneyNewsWire.Net, November 08, 2017 ) The Global Thaumatin Market was worth USD 34.2 million in 2016, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.9%, to reach USD 39.4 million by 2021. Thaumatin is a protein which is extracted from Katemfe fruit. The fruit is abundantly available in West African rain forest zone. It has been used as a sweetener in cooking and as an alternative to sugar for many years. The fact that it contains only 4 calories per gram despite being thousands of times sweeter than sucrose makes it a great alternate for table sugar in sugar treats.
There are no toxicity issues reported regarding the use of thaumatin. It is digested by the body like it does in the case of any other protein. The unique property of thaumatin is that its sweetness builds very slowly on the taste buds and the perception lasts a long time. It is also very easy to handle as it is water soluble and stable to heating.
