Research Summary
Glycerol monostearate (GMS) is an ester derived from glycerol and stearic acid, commonly used as a food additive and emulsifier in the food and cosmetic industries. This compound acts as a surfactant, enabling the mixing of water and oil-based ingredients in various products. In the food industry, GMS is often employed in the production of baked goods, confections, and dairy products to improve texture, enhance stability, and prevent crystallization. Its emulsifying properties make it valuable in the creation of creams, lotions, and other cosmetic formulations, contributing to the smooth texture and stability of these products. Glycerol monostearate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by regulatory authorities when used in accordance with specified limits, and its versatility makes it a common ingredient in a diverse range of consumer goods.
