Product Description:

Saccharin sodium is an orally active, non-caloric artificial sweetener (NAS). Saccharin sodium has bacteriostatic and microbiome-modulating properties. Saccharin binds to and signals via specific taste receptors, not only in the oral cavity but also alongside the gastrointestinal tract. Saccharin has been reported to bind the human and rodent heteromeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) coupled sweet taste receptors T1R2/T2R3 as well as the human bitter taste receptor T2R43 and T2R44. Saccharin can inhibit bacterial growth in vitro[1].
