a.Refined Carrageenan
b.Semi-refined Carrageenan
2.Iota type: refined and semi-refine
1.Introduction:
carrageenan is a extract of hydrocolloid red seaweeed, with functions of gel, suspension, emulsion, thickener, stability, hold water. It used for food industry such as cheese, ice-cream, yaourt, butter, sausage, jelly, candy,meat products, aquatic products and so on. Carrageenan also has important functions for pharmaceutical, daily chemical, biological engineering.
