Product Description
Jiangsu Zipin is a leading China Curdlan manufacturers, suppliers and exporter. Curdlan is a polysaccharide produced by a microorganism, alcaligenesfaecalis var. myxogenes. Curdlan is a linear homopolymer of D-glucose with -1,3-glucosidic linkages. Curdlan is insoluble in water, alcohol, and most organic solvents. It does, however, dissolve in alkali solutions such as sodium hydroxide and tribasic sodiumphosphate.Heating an aqueous suspension of Curdlan above 80℃forms an irreversiblegel (high set). A second type of gel (low set), similar to agar-agar and K-carrageenan gels, is formed by heating to 60℃followed by cooling.
