The effect of metal ion content on the viscosity of gum ghatti

Abstract: Cold water extraction of gum ghatti gives a soluble gum and an insoluble gel. The two fractions were shown by potentiometric titration to have the same acid equivalent weight and to be largely in the salt form, with less than 10% in the free acid form. Quantitative analysis of the two fractions for metal ion content showed that the gel fraction was largely a calcium salt. The soluble fraction contains calcium, potassium, sodium, and magnesium. Precipitation of the calcium ions reduces the viscosity but the ori… Show more

“…Moreover, interaction between starch molecule and Ca 2+ could decrease starch solubility (Bryant and Hamaker, 1997;Ch et al, 2014). Similar results were also reported by Martin et al (2006) and by Karl et al (1983) in thermally processed soy beverages.…”

“…Gel formation is not just because of calcium ions; it occurs as a result of intermolecular linkages. The viscosity of gel is reported to be 10–30 times higher than that of the soluble fraction of ghatti gum . Intrinsic viscosity is related to hydrodynamic volume of gum molecules.…”
