Agar is a mixture of a neutral, dominating polysaccharide called "Agarose" and a charged polymer called "Agaropectin". The agarose is composed of (1-4) linked 3, 6-anhydro -a- - L - galactose alternating with (1-3) linked - b - D - galactose. Agar is a natural macromolecule multi_sugar product, which extracted from Gelidium and porphyra and Gracilaria etc seaweeds as raw materials, refined through scientific method. With various elements, it can nor only refresh and clear rheamatism, but also whet the appetite. Agar has been agreed by FDA as a safe products, and aproved as a food additive in the Food & Chemical Medicine Dictionary. AGAR gels are thermoreversible.

Application
As a soluable jelly, especially
in boiled water Agar has two states: strip and powder. Even lowed the density
to 1%, Agar can still be relatively stable jelly, thus has an important
character in industry, being the necessary materials in Food Industry,
Chemaical Industry and Medicine and Science Research.
1. In Food Industry, Agar has the following characteristics: Stablizing and
coagulating, can be widely used in producing drink, ice cream, sugar, canned
food, meat products etc, as coagulant, densifying agent, emulsifying agent, keeping
fresh agent, stabilizing agent , floation agent.
2. In chemical Industry and Medicine & Science Research, Agar is used as
ointment-base and cultivate-base and so on.
Shelf Life
2 years.
Package
