<br />
'''Acesulfame potassium''', also known as '''acesulfame K''' or '''Ace-K''', is a calorie-free artificial sweetener. It is used in various food and beverage products to provide a sweet taste without the calories associated with sugar.<br />
<br />
==Chemical structure and properties==<br />
Acesulfame potassium is a [[potassium]] salt of 6-methyl-1,2,3-oxathiazine-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide. It is a white crystalline powder with a chemical formula of C_H_KNO_S. The compound is stable under heat and moderately acidic or basic conditions, making it suitable for use in cooking and baking.<br />

<br />
==Sweetness and taste profile==<br />
Acesulfame potassium is approximately 200 times sweeter than [[sucrose]], the common sugar. It is often used in combination with other sweeteners such as [[aspartame]] or [[sucralose]] to enhance the sweetness profile and mask any potential aftertaste. The sweetener is known for its rapid onset of sweetness and clean taste.<br />
<br />
==Uses in food and beverages==<br />
Acesulfame potassium is widely used in a variety of food and beverage products, including [[soft drinks]], [[chewing gum]], [[baked goods]], and [[dairy products]]. It is also used in [[tabletop sweeteners]] and [[pharmaceuticals]]. Its stability under heat makes it a popular choice for products that require cooking or baking.<br />
<br />
==Safety and regulatory status==<br />
Acesulfame potassium has been approved for use in food and beverages by numerous health authorities, including the [[Food and Drug Administration]] (FDA) in the United States and the [[European Food Safety Authority]] (EFSA). It is considered safe for consumption by the general population, including individuals with [[diabetes]], as it does not affect blood glucose levels.<br />
<br />
==Metabolism and excretion==<br />
Acesulfame potassium is not metabolized by the body and is excreted unchanged in the urine. This characteristic contributes to its calorie-free status, as it does not provide any energy or affect blood sugar levels.<br />
