General
-
Pullulan is a polysaccharide polymer
consisting of maltotriose units, also known as
α-1,4- ;α-1,6-glucan.
-
As an odorless white colored powder, pullulan is
easily soluble in water to make clear and
viscous solution.
-
Pullulan is a neutral glucan with a
chemical structure somewhat depending on carbon
source, producing microorganism fermentation
conditions.
Process
and Technology
- Pullulan
is an extracellular bacterial polysaccharide produced from
starch by Aureobasidium pullulans.
- Pullulan
is an extremely versatile ingredient providing a technology
platform for product innovation. It is an excellent film-former,
producing a film which is heat sealable with good oxygen barrier
properties and which can also be printed.
.Application
- Typical
industrial uses of pullulan are as food coatings and packaging
material due to its
good film-forming properties, as an ingredient of low calorie
foods and as a starch substitute.
- It is used
as an adhesive in the form of pastes with water, as a
construction material (after esterification) with fibers similar
in strength and elasticity to those in nylon; and as a bulking
agent and stabilizer for tablets in the pharmaceutical industry
