WHAT DOES MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

monosodium glutamate

Monosodium glutamate

Monosodium glutamate, also known as sodium glutamate, is the sodium salt of glutamic acid, one of the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acids. MSG was classified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as generally recognized as safe and by the European Union as a food additive. MSG has the HS code 29224220 and the E number E621. The L-glutamate form of MSG confers the same umami taste of free L-glutamate naturally found in foods. Industrial food manufacturers market and use MSG as a flavor enhancer because it balances, blends and rounds the total perception of other tastes. Trade names of monosodium glutamate include Ac'cent, Aji-No-Moto, and Ve-Tsin.
