Xanthan Gum

SNC00464
Xanthan Gum is a natural polysaccharide produced by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. It has a high molecular weight and is composed of glucose, mannose, and glucuronic acid. Xanthan gum is a water-soluble powder that is usually used as a thickening and stabilizing agent in food, personal care, and industrial products. It is also used in oil drilling to improve the viscosity of drilling mud. Xanthan gum is highly efficient in forming stable and elastic gels and has excellent resistance to heat, pH, and shear stresses. It is approved for use in food products by regulatory agencies such as the FDA and EFSA and is considered safe for human consumption.

Product Details

 

Xanthan Gum is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. This cream-colored powder is renowned for its unique properties as a food additive, serving as an emulsifier, stabilizer, and thickener. The purpose of xanthan gum is to enhance the viscosity, texture, and stability of a wide range of products, including foods, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.

Key Features:

  • Solubility: Xanthan Gum is fully soluble in cold water, creating a highly viscous solution that is stable across a broad pH range, from 1 to 13.
  • Thickening Agent: Xanthan Gumis effective in thickening without the need for heat and retains its properties even when cooled, making it ideal for canned foods and shelf-stable products.
  • Emulsification: As an emulsifier, xanthan gum aids in maintaining a uniform mixture of ingredients that might otherwise separate.
  • Stabilization: Xanthan Gum helps to stabilize water-based foods and suspensions, preventing sedimentation and improving product consistency.

Applications:

  • Food Industry: Xanthan gum is used in various food products such as sauces, dressings, dairy, and baked goods to improve texture and extend shelf life.
  • Pharmaceuticals: Xanthan Gum serves as a suspension agent in medications to ensure proper dosing and is also used in personal care products like makeup and lotions.
  • Industrial Uses: Beyond food and pharmaceuticals, xanthan gum is utilized in the petroleum industry, particularly in hydraulic fracturing, to enhance the rheological properties of drilling fluids.
  • Cosmetic & Daily Chemicals: It thickens serums, facial masks and shower gels, stabilizing formulas and delivering smooth, spreadable texture.

Health Considerations: While generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience minor digestive issues such as stomachache or bloating due to xanthan gum consumption. Xanthan Gum is also considered to have potential health benefits, such as slowing sugar absorption and moderating blood sugar levels.

Product Specifications:

  • Appearance: White or yellowish-white, free-flowing powder with a typical odor and taste.
  • Solubility: Soluble in water, giving a highly viscous solution; insoluble in organic solvents.
  • Viscosity: 1% xanthan gum in 1% KCl solution (60 rpm) yields 1400 – 1600 mPa·s.

Xanthan Gum is a versatile supplement that enhances the quality and performance of numerous products, making it an indispensable component in various industries.
