MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) Production Cost Report

MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) (C5H8NO4Na) is a well-known and widely used seasoning and flavour booster. It is a kind of organic compound, glutamic acid, which is found in many natural foods.

MSG has many functions inside the body, like being responsible for building proteins. It looks like a white crystalline solid that has no odour or smell. It has a molar mass of (anhydrous) 169.11 grams/mole; and (a monohydrate) 187.12 grams/mole. Its respective melting and boiling points are 232 ºC and 333.8 ºC.

It has a high solubility in water of around 740 grams/litre. Its solution has a pH ranging between 6.7 to 7.2. Upon being heated over 232 ºC, it decomposes, releasing toxic fumes of nitrogen and sodium oxide. Upon cooling to a temperature lower than -8 ºC, it crystallises as a pentahydrate. It acts on the salt receptors and releases neurotransmitters.

Monosodium Glutamate is extensively used as an umami flavour enhancer in sauces, soups, broths, and other types of food. In the food industry, it is mainly employed in several canned food items and spice mixes. It is added as a taste enhancer in tobacco. Besides that, it helps treat hepatic coma. Hence, the demand for MSG is rapidly rising owing to the fact that it is widely used by restaurants as well as food manufacturing companies where its use is vital. Moreover, as the demand for processed and packaged food increases, so will the industry's expansion.
