Agar-Agar Details
Agar-Agar is a natural macromolecule Polysaccharide product extracted from seaweeds such as porphyra and Gracilaria etc. and refined by scientific methods. It is composed of Agarose and Agaropectin. The agarose is composed of (1-4) linked 3, 6-anhydro -a-L-galactose alternating with (1-3) linked-b-D-galactose. Agar-Agar is usually white or tiny yellow, free of smell or having light characteristic smell. It can't dissolve in cold water but can easily dissolve in boiling water and dissolve slowly in hot water.
Agar-Agar plays a special important role in industry. The concentration of Agar-Agar can still form quite stable gel even the concentration fall to 1%.It is the necessary raw material of food industry, chemical industry and medical research.
Agar-Agar owns useful and specific characters: physical and chemical property are concretion, stability, can form complex together with other substances, can be used for thickener, coagulator, suspension agent, emulsifier, antistaling agent, and stabilizer.
Agar has been agreed by FDBA as a safe products,and ap p roved as a food additive in the Food & Chemical Medicine Dictionary.
Agar is a mixture of a neutral, dominating polysaccharide called "Agarose" and a charged polymer called "Agaropectin". The agarose is composed of (1-4) linked 3,6-anhydro -a- - L - galactose alternating with (1-3) linked - b - D - galactose.
Agar is a natural macromolecule multi_sugar product,which extracted from porphyra and Gracilaria etc seaweeds as raw materials,refined through scientific method.With various elements,it can nor only refresh and clear rheamatism,but also whet the appetite.
As a soluable jelly,especially in boiled water Agar has two states:strip and powder.Even lowed the density to 1%, Agar can still be relatively stable jelly,thus has an important character in industry,being the necessary materials in Food Industry,Chemical Industry and Medicine and S c ience Research.
In Food Industry,Agar has the following characteristics:Stablizing and coagulating, can be widely used in producing drink,icecream,sugar,canned food,meat products etc, as coagulant, densifying agent,emulsifying agent,keeping fresh agent, stabilizing agent ,floation agent.
In chemical Industry and Medicine & Science Research,Agar is used as ointment-base and cultivate-base and so on.
