Saccharin is an organic compound derived from petroleum. It is a synthetic, white crystalline powder, consisting of a molecular formula C7H5O3NS, which in its pure state is 550 times as sweet as sugarcane raw sugar. In its commercial form, saccharin is estimated to have a sweetening power 375 times that of sugar. When moderately large amounts of saccharin are dissolved in water, the solution has a bitter taste, as the sweetness is evident only in dilute solutions. Saccharin is not digested by the body and has no food or caloric value. ...
