Locust bean gum is a natural hydrocolloid extracted from locust tree seeds. The endosperm of carob seeds are separated from germ and testa by various processes then ground to locust bean gum. Locust bean gum imparts smooth flow properties, freeze- thaw stability and appropriate thickening to a wide range of products. It also improves gel strength when used in combination with K-Carrageenan. Locust Bean Gum provides brightness high viscosity the whitest coloured and highest gel strength. Locust bean gum dissolves completely above 75 C. Usage level : 0.1 â?? 0.9 %. We mainly produce the following Locust bean Gum grades; Locust Bean Gum A-01 (2800 -3000 cps):Top grade Locust Bean Gum suitable for the products where high viscosity and whiteness are important. Locust Bean Gum A-02 (2400- 2600 cps): Medium grade Locust Bean Gum suitable for the products where high viscosity is not very important. Locust Bean Gum A-03 (2000 -2200 cps): Standard grade Locust Bean Gum suitable for the products where both high viscosity and whiteness are not very important.

Locust Bean Gum, E410, CAS no.9000-40-2, a galactomannan vegetable gum extracted from the seeds of the carob tree. Locust Bean Gum appears as a white to yellow-white powder, and is often used as a thickening agent and gelling agent. It has a sweet flavor similar to chocolate, and is mainly used to sweeten ice cream, cream cheese, transparent jellies, infant formulas, skin care products. Locust bean gum significantly improves gel strength and texture and prevents syneresis when used in combination with Carrageenan. Its unique synergy with Xanthan gum provides clear advantages such as highly elastic gel formation from two thickening agents with a very limited syneresis. As an experienced Locust Bean Gum manufacturer and supplier, we has been supplying and exporting Locust Bean Gum for almost 10 years, please be assured to buy from us.

Guar gum is a fiber from the seed of the guar plant. Guar gum is used as a laxative. It is also used for treating diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), obesity, and diabetes; for reducing cholesterol; and for preventing “hardening of the arteries” (atherosclerosis). In foods and beverages, guar gum is used as a thickening, stabilizing, suspending, and binding agent. In manufacturing, guar gum is used as a binding agent in tablets, and as a thickening agent in lotions and creams. How does it work? Guar gum is a fiber that normalizes the moisture content of the stool, absorbing excess liquid in diarrhea, and softening the stool in constipation. It also might help decrease the amount of cholesterol and glucose that is absorbed in the stomach and intestines. There is some interest in using guar gum for weight loss because it expands in the intestine, causing a sense of fullness. This may decrease appetite. USES: Diarrhea. Adding guar gum to the tube feeding formula given to critical care patients may shorten episodes of diarrhea from about 30 days to about 8 days. High cholesterol. Taking guar gum seems to lower cholesterol levels in people with high cholesterol. Guar gum and pectin, taken with small amounts of insoluble fiber, also lower total and “bad” low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, but don't affect “good” high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol or other blood fats called triglycerides. Diabetes. Taking guar gum with meals seems to lower blood sugar after meals in people with diabetes. By slowing stomach emptying, guar gum may also lessen after-meal drops in blood pressure that occur frequently in people with diabetes. Constipation. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
