Production of high viscous gum arabic

TLDR
In this article, the subject gum arabic without necessity of additive such as thickener for enhancing emulsifying function has been obtained by performing thermal denaturation of arabbic acid.
Abstract
PURPOSE:To obtain the subject gum arabic without necessity of additive such as thickener for enhancing emulsifying function having exceedingly high emulsifying function by performing thermal denaturation of arabic acid. CONSTITUTION:Arabic acid is thermally denaturated preferably at 105-140 deg.C to obtain the aimed gum arabic having 15-4000cps viscosity of 10% aqueous solution.

Method of modifying gum arabic, modified gum arabic obtained by the method, and use thereof

Abstract: A method of heightening the emulsifying power of gum arabic without causing coloration or offensive-odor emission. The method comprises: a step in which an aqueous solution of gum arabic which has undergone no heat treatment is prepared in a concentration of 50 mass% or lower; and a treatment in which the aqueous solution is held under the conditions of a temperature lower than 60°C for at least 6 hours. Thus, a modified gum arabic can be obtained which is colorless, emits no offensive odor, and has excellent emulsifying power. The modified gum arabic is suitable for use as an emulsifying agent for beverages, snacks, chewing gums, oily perfumes, oily dyes, oil-soluble vitamins, etc.
