    Ingredients How to Fortify Beverages With Calcium by Dr. Gerhard Gerstner Along with current developments of the overall functional foods market, the use of minerals and especially calcium salts is expected to exhibit strong growth rates. In contrary to other functional ingredients, calcium is widely known as being beneficial for human health and there is no need to explain its nutritional ad- vantages to the customer.

  • Factors Affecting Precipitation of Calcium Lactate from Fermentation Broths and from Aqueous Solution

Lactic acid can be produced either by fermentation or by chemical synthesis but the biotechnological fermentation process has several advantages compared to the other one. However fermentation broth contains a number of impurities which must be removed from the broth in order to achieve more pure lactic acid. Efficiency of recovery is crucial to the economy of the whole process as well since the costs of separation and recovery are responsible for more than half of the entire cost of production. In the traditional procedure, the heated and filtered fermentation broth is concentrated to allow crystallization or precipitation of calcium lactate, followed by addition of sulphuric acid to remove the calcium in form of calcium sulphate. The disadvantage of this procedure is the relatively high solubility of calcium lactate which causes product loss in the crystallization step. Therefore we investigated the effects of four operating parameters of the crystallization/precipitation process from two different fermentation broths and from an aqueous solution.

    CALCIUM-SANDOZ® Novartis Consumer Health Calcium Preparations Calcium Therapy Indications And Clinical Uses: As a dietary supplement where calcium intake may be inadequate: childhood and adolescence, pregnancy and lactation, postmenopausal females and in the aged. In the treatment of calcium deficiency states which may occur in diseases such as: tetany of the newborn (as a supplement to parenterally administered calcium), hypoparathyroidism (acute and chronic), pseudo-hypoparathyroidism, postmenopausal and senile osteoporosis, rickets and osteomalacia. Contra-Indications: Hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria (e.g. hyperparathyroidism, vitamin D overdosage, decalcifying tumors such as plasmocytoma, bone metastases); severe renal disease; and in calcium loss due to immobilization. Hypersensitivity to any of the components of Calcium-Sandoz. Although no concrete evidence is available about the metabolic process leading from calcium glucono-galacto-gluconate to galactose, it is advisable not to administer to galactosemic patients. Precautions: For diabetic patients, consideration should be given to the sucrose content of 719 mg/tablet of Calcium-Sandoz Forte. Gramcal and Calcium-Sandoz Syrup are suitable for sodium and potassium restricted diets. Calcium-Sandoz Forte is suitable for potassium restricted diets. Because of the presence of sodium (12 mmol), Calcium-Sandoz Forte is not suitable for sodium restricted diets. In mild hypercalciuria (exceeding 300 mg/24 hours) as well as in chronic renal failure, or where there is evidence of stone formation in the urinary tract, adequate checks must be kept on urinary calcium excretion. If necessary the dosage should be reduced or calcium therapy discontinued. In patients prone to formation of calculi in the urinary tract an increased fluid intake is recommended.

Methods: The clinical trial of the study was double blind. Human enamel blocks with artifi- cial subsurface lesions were mounted in oral devices in 15 subjects. The subjects served as their own controls and were instructed to chew the three different gums, containing: (1) 79% su- crose (S), (2) 40% xylitol (X) and (3) 40% xylitol plus calcium hydrogen phosphate and funo- ran (X+2), 7 times daily, for a period of 1 week each respectively. Mineral content within the lesions after chewing each gum was analysed by quantitative microradiography. All data were analysed statistically using a one-way ANOVA test. Results: After chewing the gums, the amount of mineral at all depths of subsurface lesion was highest in the X+2 group, followed by the X group and then the S group. The difference be- tween the groups was statistically significant (p < 0.01), especially in the lesion body. Conclusion: Xylitol chewing gum containing calcium hydrogen phosphate and funoran sig- nificantly enhanced the remineralisation of initial human enamel lesions in situ.
