Chitosan
Charateristic and efficacy of Chitosan :
1.highest gel intensity with least usage.
2.highest gel tansparency
3.adjustable elasticity and rigidity
4.superior flavour
5.fine synergistic effect
6.outstanding heat-stability, acid-resisant,alkali-resisty,anti-mold.
Chitosan is widely used in foods and various other fields:
(1)Typical foods prepared using gellan gum: Gelled desserts, jam, jelly, pudding, confectionery, sugarcoating of confectionery, frost of cake, filling of cake or bread, and other foods, cakes, and pet foods.
(2) Other applications: Microbiological media, capsules, perfumes, etc.
