Gumix Xanthan Gum

Gumix Xanthan Gum is a high-molecular weight carbohydrate. It is a polysaccharide industrially produced in a pure culture fermentation by the microorganism Xanthomonas campestris. The microorganism is cultured in a well-aerated medium containing carbohydrates, a source of nitrogen, and appropriate essential trace elements. The Xanthomonas campestris culture is grown in several carefully-controlled successive stages prior to introduction into the final fermentation medium. Following fermentation, the broth is sterilized to prevent bacterial contamination, and xanthan gum is recovered by precipitation with alcohol, drying, and milling.

    Features

    Xanthan Gum is readily soluble in hot or cold water. The structural rigidity of the Xanthan Gum molecule produces several unusual functional properties such as heat stability, good tolerance for strongly acidic and basic solutions, stable viscosity over a wide temperature range, and resistance to enzymatic degradation. Xanthan Gum is compatible with other plant hydrocolloids as well as carbohydrates and proteins.
