Product Applications
  • Cereal and Pasta Products: DSP is added to adjust the pH of these products to maintain quality color in final product and, as it also accelerates the cook time, is especially useful in quick cooking cereals.
  • Spray Dried Milk Products: DSP is commonly used during production of spray dried cheese and nonfat milk powders. DSP protects the milk proteins from heat dehydration allowing the proteins to remain dispersed during the spray drying process, which assists in the solubility of the powders upon reconstitution with water. DSP also stabilizes the emulsion to enhance flavor, body, and appearance of the final product.
  • Fluid Milk Products: DSP prevents heat coagulation in condensed and evaporated milk/cream, sterilized milk/cream/soups, and UHT processed milk products. Storage life is maximized due to retardation of age gelation of the milk proteins.
  • Process Cheese Products: DSP helps to buffer the pH of the processed cheese and interacts with milk proteins to promote emulsification.
  • Instant Pudding and No-Bake Cheesecake: The addition of DSP, when used in conjunction with a gel inducer, will accelerate the set of the gel at room temperature.
  • Sodium phosphate (mono-, di-, and tribasic; MSP, DSP and TSP) is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) as a multiple purpose food substance and nutrient by the FDA under 21 CFR 182.1778, and 182.8778. Food Grade Sodium Phosphate is generally recognized as safe when used in accordance with good manufacturing practice.
  • Disodium phosphate (DSP) is a sequestrant in 21 CFR 182.6290.
  • Disodium hydrogen phosphate (DSP) is classified as a stabilizer when migrating from food-packaging materials under 21 CFR 181.29.
  • Sodium Phosphate (mono-, di-, tri-) has approval as a boiler water additive in 21 CFR 173.310. • Sodium phosphate (mono-, di-, and tribasic; MSP, DSP and TSP) is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) in animal food as a general purpose additive, nutrient/dietary supplement, and sequestrant when used in accordance with good manufacturing or feeding practice under 21 CFR 582.1778, 582.5778 and 582.6778.
