CASSIA GUM POWDER - A NATURAL GELLING AGENT

Cassia Gum Powder is also known as cassia powder, cassia tora powder, cassia tora splits powder.
Cassia Gum - A Natural Gelling Agent which has industrial and food applications is made commercially from the seed. Cassia grows in hot, wet, tropical climates both wild and commercially. Cassia is a tonic, carminative and stimulant. Cassia contains 1-2 % volatile cassia oil, which is mainly responsible for the spicy aroma and taste.
Cassia Gum is a food additive made from the endosperm of cassia obtusifolia also known as senna obtusifolia or cassia tora. Cassia gum is a naturally occurring polymer with mannose and galactose as its repeating units. Cassia gum forms high viscosity by swelling in water after it is boiled.
Cassia Gum Powder is the purified flour from the endosperm of the seeds of cassia obtusifolia and cassia tora which belong to the leguminosae family. These seeds are generally contaminated with seeds from Celtis Occidentalis. The seeds that are used in the production of cassia gum are generally picked randomly from these contaminated seeds. Before the seed splitting process is started, the seeds of cassia obtusifolia and cassia tora are passed through grading machines to differentiate them on the basis of their size. During this procedure, the underdeveloped seeds are removed and Celtis Occidentalis seeds are reduced to no more than 0.05%. A composite sample of each fraction is given to the laboratory for inspection for the presence of Celtis Occidentalis.
Cassia Gum Powder is primarily the ground purified endosperm of the seeds of Cassia tora and Cassia obtusifolia containing less than 0.1% of Celtis Occidentalis. The seeds are dehusked and de-germed by thermal mechanical treatment followed by milling and screening of the endosperm. The ground endosperm is further purified by extraction with isopropanol.
Cassia Gum Powder is a natural gelling agent. Cassia Gum powder has mainly two grades being widely used across the world and is highly demanded. One is Cassia Gum Powder E427 has application in pet food and the other is Cassia Gum Powder E499 which is used as a food additive.
