Sucroal Commercial Citric Acid is produced through submerged fermentation of glucose sources obtained from sugar cane with a selected strain of Aspergillus niger. It appears as translucent or white crystal powder. Manufactured with non-allergenic ingredients, non-genetically modified organisms, and non-organic volatile solvents or substances, citric acid anhydrous is odorless or has a slight maple odor, possessing a strongly acidic taste and slight deliquescence in moist environments.
