Xanthan Gum is a versatile polysaccharide valued for its wide-ranging industrial applications, particularly as a premier food additive. Renowned for its superior efficacy, it acts as an exceptional thickening agent, emulsifier, and stabilizer, ensuring that your ingredients remain perfectly integrated. Crafted through a sophisticated fermentation process using simple sugars, its esteemed name is derived from the unique bacterial species involved, Xanthomonas campestris.
The remarkable journey of Xanthan gum was initiated bythe pioneering efforts of Allene Rosalind Jeanes and her dedicated research team at the United States Department of Agriculture. The transformation into commercial production was achieved by CP Kelco under the brand Kelzan, marking the early 1960s as a turning point. With its approval for food use in 1968, Xanthan gum has gained universal acceptance as a safe food additive across the USA, Canada, Europe, and beyond, proudly carrying the E number E415 and CAS number 11138-66-2.
The distinguished term 'Xanthan' is a homage to the bacterial species utilized in its fermentation process, Xanthomonas campestris.
