| Viscogum® Locust Bean Gum
Odor: bland Use: Used alone, galactomannans such as guar and locust bean gum thicken and form viscous, shear thinning solutions. Locust bean gum contains more smooth zones making it insoluble at room temperature and, unlike guar, it can cross-link xanthan and kappa carrageenan to form mixed gels. |

| Caragum® 200
Flavor: characteristic Caragum® 200 is a special blend of gums designed to impart viscosity when added to cold water and further boost viscosity after heating to 180° F. Caragum 200 thickens and adds body to products such as soups, sauces, and gravies. Cargaum 200 is widely used to replace wheat starch in traditional sauces and replace other starches to allow for more delicate flavors to be detected. |
| TIC Gums |
| Caragum® 300 2473
Flavor: characteristic Caragum® 300 is a blend of stabilizers developed as a low cost replacement for locust bean gum in fruit preparations, sauces, and cream cheese. Thissystem replaces locust bean gum at a 1:1 ratio. See also Stabilizer XC-424 |
| TIC Gums |
| TIC Pretested® Locust Bean Gum POR/A Powder
Flavor: characteristic Using a process which eliminates the dark seeds, this grade of Locust Bean Gum is both higher in viscosity and with fewer specks than typical Locust Bean Gum. Locust Bean Gum has excellent freeze/thaw and water binding characteristics which make it ideal for frozen dairy products and cream cheese applications. TIC GUMS has developed proven replacements, formulated when pricing for Locust Bean Gum rose. |
| TIC Gums |
| TIC Pretested® Locust Bean Gum POR/A2 Powder
Flavor: characteristic TIC Pretested Locust Bean Gum POR/A2 has excellent freeze/thaw and water binding characteristics which make it ideal for frozen dairy products and cream cheese applications. Locust Bean Gum POR/A2 is synergistic with carrageenans and xanthan gum. Typical usage levels range from 0.1% to 0.3%. Locust Bean Gum POR/A2 is more acid tolerant than Guar Gum. Most gums that thicken are cold water soluble, but Locust Bean POR/A2 needs to be heated to 165°F in order to fully hydrate. Some processes are able to utilize the low viscosity at lower temperatures to their advantage. |
| TIC Gums |
| TICorganic® Locust Bean Gum Powder
Flavor: characteristic TICorganic® Locust Bean Gum Powder is available to thicken gravies, sauces dairy products. TICorganic Locust Bean Gum will disperse in cold water and partially swell, but typically requires heating to 165 F in order to fully hydrate. Higher temperatures may be required where there is little free water available. TICorganic Locust Bean Gum Powder provides excellent freeze/thaw stability characteristics, is compatible with starches and guar gum. |
