Gluconic acid-δ-lactone (GDL) is a food additive and industrial reagent produced via enzymatic oxidation of glucose. Its molecular formula is C6H10O6 with CAS No. 90-80-2. It functions as an acidulant, leavening agent, and pH regulator.
Avoid inhalation of dust; wear protective gloves and goggles. Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture to prevent premature hydrolysis into gluconic acid. Not intended for direct clinical administration without formulation.
