Introduction |
Sodium alginate is a by-product of extracting iodine and mannitol from brown algae kelp or sargassum. Its molecule is composed of β-D-mannuronic acid (β-D-mannuronic, M) and α-L-gulo Uronic acid (α-L-gluronic, G) is connected by the (1→4) bond. The aqueous solution of sodium alginate has high viscosity and has been used as a thickener, stabilizer, emulsifier, etc. in food. Sodium alginate is a non-toxic food and has been included in the United States Pharmacopeia as early as 1938. Sodium alginate contains a large amount of -COO-, can exhibit polyanion behavior in aqueous solution, has certain adhesion, and can be used as a drug carrier for treating mucosal tissue. Under acidic conditions, -COO- transforms into -COOH, the degree of ionization decreases, the hydrophilicity of sodium alginate decreases, and the molecular chain shrinks. When the pH value increases, the -COOH group continues to dissociate, and the hydrophilicity of sodium alginate decreases. The properties increase and the molecular chains stretch. Therefore, sodium alginate has significant pH sensitivity. Sodium alginate can quickly form a gel under extremely mild conditions. When there are cations such as Ca2+ and Sr2+, the Na+ on the G unit undergoes an ion exchange reaction with the divalent cation, and the G units accumulate to form a cross-linked network structure, thus forming Hydrogels. The conditions under which sodium alginate gels are mild, which can avoid the inactivation of active substances such as sensitive drugs, proteins, cells and enzymes. Due to these excellent properties, sodium alginate has been widely used in the food industry and pharmaceutical fields. |
Function |
As a thickening agent for beverages and dairy products, sodium alginate has unique advantages in thickening: the good fluidity of sodium alginate makes the drink taste smooth after addition; and it can prevent the viscosity drop during the sterilization process of the product. When using sodium alginate as a thickener, products with larger molecular weights should be used as much as possible, and Ca should be added in an appropriate amount. It can greatly increase the viscosity of sodium alginate. Sodium alginate is a high-grade stabilizer for ice cream and other cold drinks. It can give ice cream and other cold drinks a smooth appearance and smooth taste. Since calcium alginate can form a stable thermo-irreversible gel, it will not become rough (ice crystal growth) during transportation and storage, and ice cream will not deform due to temperature fluctuations. At the same time, this ice cream has no peculiar smell when eaten. It not only increases the expansion rate but also the melting point, significantly improving the quality and efficiency of the product. The product has a smooth, delicate texture and good taste. The addition amount is low, generally 1-3%, and the foreign addition amount is 5-10%. Sodium alginate is used as a stabilizer for dairy products and beverages. Stable frozen milk has a good taste, no stickiness and stiffness, and is sticky and hysteretic when stirred. |
