What is Xanthan Gum?
Xanthan Gum is a high-molecular-weight polysaccharide produced by microbial fermentation using Xanthomonas campestris. It acts as a superior thickener, emulsifier, and stabilizer in a wide range of applications including sauces, dressings, dairy alternatives, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Known for its strong shear-thinning properties (i.e., becoming less viscous under force), it ensures easy pouring while maintaining suspension and texture in final products.
