Vitiva has launched Substar, a rosemary-based, oil-soluble oxidation management system. Substar is an alternative to tocopherols for protecting shelf life in a variety of products.
Substar is designed to be used with a range of sensitive applications and products such as edible fats and oils, fish oils, vegetable omega oils, margarine, pet food, animal feed and cosmetic oils. It does not need to be combined with any other ingredients to be effective.
While tocopherols are not heat stable and so are not suitable for foods that undergo heat treatment, Substar is highly heat stable, and is also light in colour. The company says the product is highly deodorised and has reduced bitterness and flavour.
According to the company, side-by-side testing using Rancimat methodology showed that Substar demonstrates greater activity and protection factor than delta-tocopherols, the most potent tocopherols.
