Product Information
Name:Xanthan gum
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Xanthan gum is a polysaccharide produced by the Gram negative bacteria Xanthomonas campestris. It has unique rheological and gel forming properties and finds many applications particularly in the food and oil industries. Recently, it has been shown that ternary mixtures of konjac glucomannan, xanthan gum and sodium alginate can form a non-covalently linked complex which exhibits enhanced rheological properties of value in, for example, functional foods. The structure of xanthan is based on a cellulosic backbone of β-(1,4)-linked glucose units which have a trisaccharide side chain of mannose-glucuronic acid-mannose linked to every second glucose unit in the main chain. Some terminal mannose units are pyruvylated and some of the inner mannose units are acetylated.
