Gumix Gellan Gum is a high-molecular weight carbohydrate. It is a naturally occurring polysaccharide industrially produced in a pure culture fermentation by the microorganism Sphingomonas elodea. Following fermentation, the broth is sterilized to prevent bacterial contamination, and Gellan Gum is recovered by precipitation with alcohol, drying, and milling.

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.
