Canvas Print : Monosodium glutamate molecule
Canvas Prints from Science Photo Library
Monosodium glutamate molecule
Monosodium glutamate. Computer model of a molecule of the food flavouring monosodium glutamate (C5.H8 N.O4.Na). The atoms (tubes) of the molecule are colour-coded: carbon (light blue), nitrogen (dark blue), oxygen (red), hydrogen (white) and sodium (Na, yellow sphere). This chemical is a salt made from the negative glutamic acid anion (tubes) and the positive sodium cation. It is viewed as either enhancing the four standard tastes (sweet, salty, sour and bitter), or as a fifth taste that is called umami

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer model of the monosodium glutamate molecule, a popular food flavoring. The intricate structure of this compound is beautifully depicted with color-coded atoms representing carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, and sodium. Carbon appears in light blue, nitrogen in dark blue, oxygen in red, hydrogen in white, and the sodium ion is represented by a vibrant yellow sphere. Monosodium glutamate is an artificial salt derived from the combination of negative glutamic acid anions and positive sodium cations. Known for its distinct taste profile, it has been attributed to enhancing the four standard tastes: sweet, salty sour and bitter. Additionally, some consider it as a fifth taste known as umami. The graphic representation of this molecular structure highlights its significance within the food industry as a savory flavor enhancer. This chemical compound plays a crucial role in adding depth and richness to various dishes. Through this visually striking image created through computer artwork techniques by Science Photo Library's talented team of scientists and artists alike; we gain insight into the complex world of chemistry that underlies our everyday culinary experiences. It serves as a reminder that even at microscopic levels there exists beauty worth exploring within our industrialized society.
