Characteristic & Efficacy   
1 Very low dosage, form gel at 0.05-0.25% concentration      Gellan gum is a very effective gelling agent    
2 Excellent Thermal stability and acid stability      "1. Little effect to gel strength after heat sterilization;
2.Its powder form allow longer term of use and long-term stability even under acid condition."    
3 Sodium or potassium irons can form termal reversible gel, while Magnesium or Calcium irons form thermal un-reversible gels      "Can be made into thermal reversible and thermal
un-reversible gels"    
4 Retains excellent flavor releasing ability      Improve product quality    
5 Good comnbination with other hydrocolloids      Adjustable gel elasticity and rigidity    
6 Good compatibility with other ingredients      Can be widely used in many formulations    
7 Can form gel between PH 3.5-7.0      "Can form high quality gels and have good gel strength
in acid to neutral food formulations"    
8 Anti-aging function      Prevent aging and viscosity raising of starch    
9 Not easy lead to enzymolysis      "Enabling flexibility in the manufacturing process, very
suitable for Microbiological media and plant media"
