Applications:
Arabinogalactans can be used as emulsifiers, stabilizers and binders according to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. Arabinogalactans can also be used as bonding agent for a bunch of things like sweeteners.[1]
The films based on xylan show low oxygen permeability and thus can be used as packaging for oxygen-sensitive products.[2]
Agar can be used in culinary such as making jellies and puddings. One more application of agar comes from the fact that it provides a growth medium with other nutrients for microorganisms.[3]
Curdlan can be used in fat replacement to produce diet food while having a taste and a mouth feel of real fat containing products.[4]
b-glucans have an important role in food supplement while b-glucans are also promising in health-related issues, especially in immune reactions and the treatment of cancer.[5]
Xanthan, with other polysaccharides can form gels that have high solution viscosity which can be used in the oil industry to thicken drilling mud. In the food industry, xanthan is used in products such as dressings and sauces.[6]
Alginate is an important role in the development of antimicrobial textiles due to its characteristics of environmental friendliness, and high industrialization level as a sustainable biopolymer.[7]
