- Features and Benefits
- INSTANT CLEARJEL® modified starch will begin to swell or thicken as soon as it is added to water, milk or juices.
- It will impart a smooth, short texture when fully hydrated.
- The viscosity will increase slightly upon heating.
- It has excellent heat and acid resistance and can be used in acid containing foods and in those applications where heating is required.
- INSTANT CLEARJEL® modified starch also has good cold temperature storage stability making it particularly well suited for refrigerated and frozen foods.
- It is recommended that INSTANT CLEARJEL® modified starch be thoroughly blended with sugar or other dry ingredients before it is added to liquids in order to prevent lumping and to insure smoothness.
- The presence of sugar acts to control the rate of the hydration of the starch.

Initial testing is done on a single composite sample against a limit of m. If result is above m, the three class sampling and acceptance below is used.
n c m M Total Plate Count/g 5 3 1,000 10,000 Yeast/g 5 3 200 1,000 Mold/g 5 3 200 1,000 Enterobacteriaceae 5 3 10 100 Where n = # of samples tested; c = maximum allowable number of results between m and M; m = upper target limit; M = maximum acceptable value.
