Ticagel® Konjac High Viscosity
Flavor: characteristic
Ticagel® Konjac High Viscosity is isolated from the tubers of the konjac plant belonging to the genus Amorphophallus (Family Araceae). It consists of glucomannan units with a G to M ratio of about 1 to 1.6. Konjac mannan is synergistic with kappa carrageenan and xanthan gum, forming thermoreversible, elastic gels. It is recommended as a thickening and gelling agent for a wide range of food applications.
