ABSTRACT

Artificial sweeteners have been studied for many decades. Sodium cyclamate (SCM) is one of them. We study the effect of quantum-chemical interactions between SCM and protein amino acids (AAs) in silico. We use the electron transfer coefficient theory in the Hyperchem quantum simulator. As a result, and conclusion, we obtained, in the most probable interactions, that the SCM is a potent antioxidant of the AAs and proteins.

Keywords: Sodium Cyclamate, Amino Acids, Human Body, Chemical-Quantum interactions, Bandgap.
