Gellan Gum LAT is a kind of low acyl gellan gum,specially processed for Plant Tissue Culture Media and Micro-organism Tissue Culture application. It has widely been applied by labs to be as subsitute of Agar Agar.The Gel Strength and the transmittance of this product could be adjusted subject to customer’s actual application.This kind of gellan gum could bear 20psi pressure for 20minutes.
Gellan Gum LAT produces a very transparent gel≥85% transmittance and gel strength between 400-700g/cm2;Use at 2-4g/L. If the customers request higher gel. strength, we can also produce with below standard:gel ≥ 90% transmittance and gel strength between 700-1100 g/cm2.While for those who need very strong gels, we could supply 1300g/cm2gel strength and ≥85% transmittance gellan gum.
As Professional Producer for gellan gum, our GELLAN GUM LAT has been applied by labs from Canada, Germany, Hondrus, Uganda, India with success.
