Pullulan
CAS No.：9057-02-7
Pullulan is a polymer biological polysaccharide produced by microbial fermentation. It has good film forming property, and its aqueous solution has good adhesion, which make it widely used in various food products for candy, snacks etc.
Pullulan Features:
Glazing agent, coated on aquatic products surface to improve luster
Film forming, after the formation of a film, oxygen is completely blocked.
Adhesion, can be used for nuts, lozenges adhesion
Low viscosity, the aqueous solution viscosity is much lower than other polysaccharides
Pullulan Applications:
Dry powder or 5% aqueous solution, added when mixing, can be used with other thickening agents.Pullulan is widely used in food industry, cosmetic industry, pharmaceutical industry, and Tobacco industry.
