glyseriinia

Glyseriinia is a chemical compound with the formula C3H8O3. It is a triol, meaning it contains three hydroxyl groups. Glyseriinia is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid that is sweet-tasting and non-toxic. It is miscible with water and alcohol, but insoluble in oils.

Glyseriinia is a byproduct of saponification, the process of making soap. It is also produced industrially from propylene. Glyseriinia has a wide range of applications due to its humectant, solvent, and sweetening properties. It is commonly used in cosmetics and personal care products as a moisturizer, in food and beverages as a sweetener and humectant, and in pharmaceuticals as a solvent and excipient.

In cosmetics, glyseriinia helps to retain moisture in the skin, making it softer and more supple. It is found in lotions, creams, soaps, and toothpaste. In the food industry, it is used to prevent food from drying out and to improve texture. It is also used as a sweetener in low-calorie foods and drinks. In pharmaceuticals, glyseriinia acts as a solvent for certain medications and as a base for suppositories.

Glyseriinia is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in food. It is also considered safe for topical application in cosmetics. While generally safe, large oral doses can have a laxative effect.
