Pululan

Pullulan polysaccharides (Polysaccharides) are a class of macromolecular compounds consisting of multiple monosaccharide molecules (monosaccharides are simple carbohydrates, such as glucose, galactose, mannose, etc.) linked by glycosidic bonds. Good stabilisation, salt resistance, acid and alkali resistance, film-forming, gas barrier, plasticity, strong viscosity. The main functions include thickening, stabilising, moisturising and improving taste. It is able to form a gelatinous structure in food, helping solid and liquid ingredients to stay together, thus improving texture and mouthfeel. They are used to increase the fibre content of foods and improve the texture and taste of foods.
