Gum Karaya is the dried exudate of the Sterculia urens tree found in India. Irregular shaped tears form upon drying and are picked and sorted based on size color and amount of bark. When processed to a powder, the color can vary depending on the amount of bark and other foreign organic matter. Gum Karaya is useful in many applications for its properties as a binding agent, adhesive and its ability to absorb large amounts of water. Much like Gum Tragacanth, Gum Karaya does not form a solution in the usual sense but absorbs water rapidly and swells to create the acidic colloidal solution. Some uses include salad dressings, meat binder and meringue. view less

Locust Bean Gum, also referred to as Carob Bean Gum, comes for the carob tree (Ceratonia silisqua) of the family Leguminous. The gum itself is derived from the ground endosperm of the seeds contained in the pod shaped fruit of the tree. On its own is a neutral polymer. When used in combination with Carrageenan and Agar, Locust Bean Gum creates the synergistic effect of incorporating elasticity into these rigid gels. From meats to cheeses, bakery products and ice cream LBG adds a smooth texture, excellent water control, stability and binding without masking taste or flavor. view less

Sodium Alginate is a kind of natural polysaccharide consisted in brown seaweed as a natural product generated from alginic acid in seaweed and minerals from the sea. As the hydrophilic gel, sodium alginate is the prevailing salt of algin, which is apt to form thick solutions. With the properties of thickness and stability, sodium alginate can be used as thickener and stabilizer in food stuff, printing paste and an oil extraction agent. view less
