Licorice

MAG (Monoammonium Glycyrrhizinate) is the monoammonium salt of glycyrrhizic acid. The product has CAS 53956-04-0 and is a fine powder of white or light creamy colour.

One of the key features of MAG is its pronounced sweet taste. The product is roughly 50 times sweeter than sugar, which is why it is used in the food industry.

MAG differs from the other glycyrrhizic acid derivatives primarily in its food application and its high sweetness intensity.
