| Chemical Roles: | food firming agent A food additive that is used to make or keep fruit or vegetable tissues firm and crisp. or which interacts with gelling agents such as pectin to produce or strengthen a gel. food colouring A food additive that imparts colour to food. In European countries, E-numbers for permitted food colours are from E 100 to E 199, divided into yellows (E 100-109), oranges (E 110-119), reds (E 120-129), blues and violets (E 130-139), greens (E 140-149), browns and blacks (E 150-159), and others (E 160-199). |

| Applications: | geroprotector Any compound that supports healthy aging, slows the biological aging process, or extends lifespan. fertilizer A fertilizer is any substance that is added to soil or water to assist the growth of plants. bone density conservation agent An agent that inhibits bone resorption and/or favor bone mineralization and bone regeneration. Used to heal bone fractures and to treat bone diseases such as osteopenia and osteoporosis. food firming agent A food additive that is used to make or keep fruit or vegetable tissues firm and crisp. or which interacts with gelling agents such as pectin to produce or strengthen a gel. hepatoprotective agent Any compound that is able to prevent damage to the liver. food colouring A food additive that imparts colour to food.
