Abstract
The importance of Gellan gum has been increasing gradually and its unique characteristics are suitable for various advanced food technologies. This review outlines recent developments in gellan gum production, modification, and newer applications focusing on food printing and bioactive delivery applications, in the last three years. The yield and production condition of gellan gum is a major factor that affects the cost and its applications. Moreover, modified Gellan gum has been shown to have superior characteristics and functionality as compared to native one. The viscosifying, thermosensitive, gelling etc. characteristics of gellan gum makes it an crucial ingredient in case of preparation of 3D printing ink. Further, gellan gum is also found to be important wall material in case of bioactive delivery application through encapsulation. Optimized methods of production, sustainable feedstock, and stress conditions are critical for the desired functionality and yield of the Gellan gum.
结冷胶的重要性逐渐增加,其独特的特性适用于各种先进的食品技术。本综述概述了近三年来在结冷胶生产、改性和新应用方面的最新进展,重点关注食品印刷和生物活性递送应用。结冷胶的产量和生产条件是影响成本及其应用的主要因素。此外,与原生结冷胶相比,改性结冷胶具有更优越的特性和功能。结冷胶的粘化、热敏、胶凝等特性使其成为制备 3D 打印墨水的重要成分。此外,结冷胶还是通过封装进行生物活性递送应用的重要壁材。优化的生产方法、可持续的原料和应力条件对于实现结冷胶的理想功能和产量至关重要。
期刊介绍:
Carbohydrate Research publishes reports of original research in the following areas of carbohydrate science: action of enzymes, analytical chemistry, biochemistry (biosynthesis, degradation, structural and functional biochemistry, conformation, molecular recognition, enzyme mechanisms, carbohydrate-processing enzymes, including glycosidases and glycosyltransferases), chemical synthesis, isolation of natural products, physicochemical studies, reactions and their mechanisms, the study of structures and stereochemistry, and technological aspects.
Papers on polysaccharides should have a "molecular" component; that is a paper on new or modified polysaccharides should include structural information and characterization in addition to the usual studies of rheological properties and the like. A paper on a new, naturally occurring polysaccharide should include structural information, defining monosaccharide components and linkage sequence.
Papers devoted wholly or partly to X-ray crystallographic studies, or to computational aspects (molecular mechanics or molecular orbital calculations, simulations via molecular dynamics), will be considered if they meet certain criteria. For computational papers the requirements are that the methods used be specified in sufficient detail to permit replication of the results, and that the conclusions be shown to have relevance to experimental observations - the authors'' own data or data from the literature. Specific directions for the presentation of X-ray data are given below under Results and "discussion".
