High Fructose Syrup 90

A premium high-fructose syrup at 90 percent fructose on dry basis, produced by chromatographic enrichment of HFCS-42. Approximately 1.4 to 1.6 times sweeter than sucrose, making it the highest-sweetness commercial fructose syrup.

Clear to light yellow viscous liquid. Used as the fructose-enrichment source for HFCS-55 blending and as a premium sweetener for low-calorie, low-glycemic, and premium beverage and dessert applications.

We supply food-grade HFCS-90 from manufacturers in China holding ISO, Halal, Kosher and other certifications relevant to the product and production.

Common market grades include Standard HFCS-90 at 77 to 80 percent solids, Reduced-Solids HFCS-90 for blending convenience, and crystallization-stabilized variants for cold-chain logistics. Non-GMO grades are available on request.

Bulk shipments in heated tankers, IBC totes, and drums. Batch-level COA covering fructose content, dry solids (Brix), pH, color, sulphated ash, and microbiology.

HFCS-90 is the highest-fructose commercial grade of high-fructose corn syrup. It is produced as a chromatographically enriched stream from HFCS-42 and is the principal source of fructose for blending HFCS-55, the standard carbonated-soft-drink sweetener.

Production begins with HFCS-42, the immediate product of enzymatic isomerization of corn-derived glucose syrup using immobilized glucose isomerase. The HFCS-42 stream is fed through chromatographic separation columns packed with cation-exchange resin, which selectively retains fructose over glucose. The enriched fructose fraction is collected at approximately 90 percent fructose dry basis, then concentrated to commercial solids.

Recognized as a permitted food ingredient by the U.S. FDA, the European Food Safety Authority, and equivalent regulatory bodies. No Acceptable Daily Intake is assigned.

Caloric value is 4 kcal per gram on a dry basis. Glycemic index of the syrup is approximately 19, the same as crystalline fructose, reflecting the dominant monosaccharide profile.

Although volumes are much smaller than HFCS-42 and HFCS-55, HFCS-90 holds an important position in the corn refining industry as the swing stream that allows manufacturers to produce HFCS-55 by blending HFCS-90 back into HFCS-42, and as a premium ingredient sold directly to formulators of low-calorie and low-glycemic beverages and desserts.
