Product Application of Saccharin Sodium Dihydrate CAS#6155-57-3
Saccharin sodium dihydrate serves as a non-nutritive sweetener and a pharmaceutical flavoring agent. Although saccharin was previously classified as reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen, it was subsequently removed from this listing because the available cancer data were insufficient to meet the current classification criteria.
