Features of Gellan Gum High Acyl:
1.Very low dosage can help to for "fluid gels" to be as suspension or stabilizing agent in beverages:2.Excellent acid stability or wide pH application range:
3.Can help to form elastic gels:
4.Help the blended beverage with a thicker mouth feel:
5.Good combination with modified starch to be used as thickener;
6.Good compatibility with other ingredients and hydrocolloids.
Typical Procedure of Gellan Gum Application:
1. Make gellan gum dispersed in cool deionised water by stirring;2. Heat solution 1. to 80 Celcius Degree;
3. Add cations into solution 2.;
4. Cool down the solution 3. to certain temperatures, stabilizing / suspending functions available.
Dispersion:
To disperse the product without lumps: Premix the powder with the other dry ingredients, and pour the preparation into the liquid under efficient stirring. Continue stirring to obtain a complete dispersion.Dissolution/Hydratioin:
The dissolution of the product depends on the medium and the process: it is improved by heat treatment (time, temperature), shear stress(stirrer, homogenizer). A complete dissolution can be rapidly obtained by boiling for 5-10min or at around 85-90℃ for 20-30min with sequestrants(Sequestrants such as sodium citrate may be required for hydration in hard water).Typical Applications:
High Acyl Gellan Gum provides fluid gelation, suspension or stabilisation to food and beverage (including dairy products) products.Some Specific Applications:
1. Acid fruit juice;
2. Fruit Pulps Suspending Beverage;
3. Dairy Drinks such as neutral milk, yoghurt, cereal milk, soybean milk, fruits pulps suspending milk beverages;
4. Roughage Drinks;
5. Vegetable protein beverage.
Regulatory Information:
Gellan Gum High Acyl complies with requirements contained in the following regulations and standards: In China: GB25535-2010;In U.S.A.: FOOD CHEMICALS CODEX, 21 CFR § 172.665; In Canada: CANADIAN FOOD AND DRUG LAW (ITEM G.2,TABLE IV), In EU: THE PURITY CRITERIA IN THE CURRENT EC DIRECTIVE, 1829/2003/EC; Others:JECFA Standard.Click here for: Low Acyl Gellan Gum
Gellan Gum Origin:
- Gellan is an anionic polysaccharide, which is produced by Sphingomonas paucimobilis bacterium(ATCC31461) through aerobic fermentation. Purified by alcohol precipitation.
- In 1978, in CP Kelco Kaneko and Kang found a water soluble polymer – gellan
- In 1988, Japan approved gellan gum for use in food products.
- In 1992,FDA approved the use of gellan gum as an food additive. It has E-number E 418.
Structure:
CINOGEL BIOTECH,a professional gellan gum manufacturer in China which foucs on both high acyl & low acyl gellan gum;
It is extremely effective at low use levels and is available in two forms.
- High Acyl Gellan Gum forms soft,very elastic gels;
- Low Acyl Gellan Gum forms firm,brittle gels.
Features
- Forming gel ,low dosage(at lest 0.05%) forms gel
- Excellent stability(PH ,Heat)
- No protein interaction
- Fluid gel(suspension)
- High clarity
- Flexibility in melting and setting temp.
Gel Formation
Dispersion
- Poor dispersion will result in incomplete hydration and loss of gum functionality.
Solutions:
- Blending with dispersants such as sugar,sodium citrate etc.
- Stirring or starting the agitator before adding.
- Using well dispersion products such as KELCOGEL or CINOGEL GELLAN
Hydration:
• Concentration of ions in
solution will affect the
hydration temp. such as
calcium , Sodium
• Low acyl gellan gum
requires a temperature of
75 ℃(1670F) to fully
hydrate the gum.
• High acyl gellan gum
hydrates between 70℃ and
80 ℃(1580F and 1760F)
even in relatively high ion
concentrations
Gel formation
In the absence of added
cations, low acyl gellan
gum gels set at around
25℃ (770F), where high
acyl sets at around 65
℃ (1490F). With added
calcium or sodium ions,
the setting temperature
increases.
Gel Texture
• Low acyl –-hard brittle gel
• High acyl—soft elastic gel
• Blending two types with
vary ratios a wide variety
of textures can be obtained.
• It is possible to obtain
textures close to those of
carrageenan and gelatin gels
