Xanthan gum is an extraordinary polysaccharide celebrated for its diverse industrial applications, prominently as a trusted food additive. This versatile ingredient serves as a robust thickening agent, an efficient emulsifier, and a reliable stabilizer, ensuring that components remain perfectly blended. It is skillfully derived from simple sugars through a sophisticated fermentation process, and its intriguing name is attributed to the specific bacteria species utilized, Xanthomonas campestris.
Xanthan gum was discovered by the pioneering scientist Allene Rosalind Jeanes and her innovative team at the United States Department of Agriculture. It was brought into the commercial spotlight by CP Kelco under the iconic trade name Kelzan in the transformative 1960s. Gaining approval for culinary applications in 1968, it is now widely embraced as a safe food additive across the USA, Canada, Europe, and beyond, distinguished by its E number E415 and CAS number 11138-66-2.
Xanthan gum takes its intriguing name from the species of bacteria employed during the meticulous fermentation process, Xanthomonas campestris.
