| Carrageenan Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | κ-Carrageenan is a sulfated linear polysaccharide of D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-D-galactose extracted from certain red seaweeds of the Rhodophyceae class. κ-Carrageenan is used in the food industry as thickening, gelling and protein-suspending agents, and by the pharmaceutical industry in pills and tablets. | | Chemical Properties | sulfate content 20-36%, forms gels powder | | Uses | The carrageenans are sulphate gums found in members of the Rhodophyceae. They consist of mixtures of polysaccharides which are mainly composed of D-galactose units linked 1~3 and 1~4. A high proportion ofthe units are substituted with sulphate half-ester groups. The carrageenans are useful stabilisers in foods. | | Uses | κ-?Carrageenan is a sulfated linear polysaccharide of D-?galactose and 3,?6-?anhydro-?D-?galactose extracted from certain red seaweeds of the Rhodophyceae class. κ-?Carrageenan is used in the food industry as thickening, gelling and protein-?suspending agents, and by the pharmaceutical industry in pills and tablets. | | Definition | A naturally occurringpolysaccharide isolated from redalgae. The polymer is composed of dgalactoseunits, many of which aresulphated. K-carrageenan is a gellingagent with uses similar to those ofagar. |
