Xanthan Gum Clear

Xanthan gum clear is a natural polysaccharide that is produced through the fermentation of sugars by the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. It is widely used as a thickening and stabilizing agent in food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications. Xanthan gum clear gives a more colourless and stable gel compared to the regular xanthan gum.

INCI Name: Xanthan Gum

CAS Number: 11138-66-2

Origin: Xanthan gum is produced through fermentation of sugars, generally from corn, wheat, or soy, using the bacterium Xanthomonas campestris. The fermentation process results in the formation of the gum, which is then dried and powdered for commercial use.

Xanthan gum is highly valued for its ability to create viscosity and stabilize emulsions without the need for heat, making it versatile across various product formulations.
