Xanthan Gum - A Marvel of Modern Science This extraordinary polysaccharide finds its place across various industries as a beloved food additive. Renowned for its remarkable thickening prowess, unparalleled emulsifying capabilities, and stabilizing powers, Xanthan Gum ensures that ingredients remain perfectly blended. It originates from simple sugars through an intricate fermentation process, proudly bearing the name of the specialized bacteria involved in its creation, Xanthomonas campestris,a true wonder of microbiology.
The inception of Xanthan Gum is credited to the ingenuity ofAllene Rosalind Jeanes and her pioneering research team at the United States Department of Agriculture. This groundbreaking discovery was propelled into the commercial realm by CP Kelco, introducing it under the distinguished trade name Kelzan during the vibrant 1960s. By 1968, it earned its rightful place as a safe food additive across the USA, Canada, Europe, and beyond, celebrated under the E number E415, with the CAS number 11138-66-2.
This natural marvel owes its name to the specific bacterial species that orchestrates the fermentation masterpiece, Xanthomonas campestris,a tribute to nature's ingenuity.
