Processed
High Gamma Concentrate
High-gamma mixed tocopherol concentrate emphasises gamma- and often delta-tocopherol fractions that excel at protecting food lipids from rancidity in nuts, rendered fats, and processed meats. It is chosen for antioxidant performance more than for alpha-tocopherol vitamin E labelling alone. Amber viscous oil, mild cereal-oil aroma. Dose in the fat phase at supplier-recommended ppm. Keep under cool, dark, low-oxygen storage—concentrates oxidise if abused.

Soy-derived concentrate enriched in gamma-tocopherol for antioxidant performance. Still a lipid, not a carbohydrate: ~95 g fat, 0 sugars, vitamin E even denser (~80000 mg/100 g).
History
Fractionation raised gamma content for superior food antioxidant performance.
High-gamma concentrates became preferred in nut and snack oil protection.
Meat and pet-food lipid systems widely specified high-gamma mixed tocopherols.
