Scleroglucan

What is Scleroglucan?

Scleroglucan is a water-soluble neutral polysaccharide made of glucose polymerized by β-1,3 and β-1,6 glycosidic bonds. It has β-D-1,6 pyranose groups, which reduces its cohesiveness after dissolving in water and has high stability and shear resistance. It is a water-soluble high molecular weight polysaccharide obtained by micronucleus-fungus fermentation. It has significant rheological properties and stability in environments with a wide range of pH, salinity and temperature changes. It is a neutral nonionic polysaccharide. It is a nonionic water-soluble polysaccharide. Due to these properties, it is widely used in various industrial fields, including the food industry, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.

Main Features

Plasticity: The solution exhibits pseudoplasticity and has a high plasticity, which makes the solution have high suspension power and good pourability.

Anti-sedimentation: It can well maintain the particles in the suspension, and will not cause precipitation in either static or dynamic environments.

Compatibility: Due to its non-ionic properties, it is not affected by acid and alkali in a wide pH range (2.5-12). It is compatible with most thickeners and does not produce synergistic effects.

High heat resistance: High temperature has almost no effect on the viscosity of the solution. The solution can be sterilized at 121℃ for 20 hours without affecting its viscosity. The viscosity can be maintained for 3 months in artificial high-mineralization water at 80℃ and for 500 days in seawater at 90℃.

Stability: It is a non-ionic water-soluble homopolysaccharide produced by filamentous fungi. Its remarkable characteristics are good rheological properties and stability. It has good stability in a wide range of pH (1-12), mineralization (0-200,000 ppm) and temperature (130°C).

Health Function

Antioxidant: The polyphenols contained in it have strong antioxidant capacity, which can remove free radicals in the body, reduce oxidative damage, and protect cells and tissues from oxidative stress.

Strengthen physical fitness: Scleroglucan can stimulate the activity of macrophages and natural killer cells, promote the proliferation and differentiation of immune cells, and improve the body's defense against pathogens.

Lowering blood lipids: It has the effect of lowering serum total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels, which helps to improve dyslipidemia and prevent the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases.

Improve microcirculation: It can reduce blood viscosity, improve microcirculation and tissue perfusion, prevent thrombosis, and help maintain the health of the cardiovascular system.

Beauty and skin care: It has the effect of removing and resisting wrinkles, can increase the elasticity and radiance of the skin, make the skin younger and healthier, and can also enhance the moisture retention capacity of the stratum corneum, lock in moisture and nutrients, and make the skin more moisturized and smooth.

Promote intestinal health: It can promote the growth of probiotics, inhibit the excessive reproduction of harmful bacteria, maintain the balance of intestinal microecology, and has an auxiliary effect on improving intestinal problems such as constipation, bloating, and chronic diarrhea.

Application Areas

Food

In the food industry, it is mainly used as a stabilizer, thickener and suspending agent. It can help food maintain a stable structure and texture, improve the taste and visual effects of food, and is widely used in products such as bread, pastries, and beverages.

Cosmetics

In cosmetics, it is used in skin care and cosmetic products to improve product stability and extend shelf life, and also helps with skin moisturizing and barrier repair.

Medicine

It is mainly used as an excipient and capsule material in preparations, has good biocompatibility and degradation properties, and is suitable for drug delivery systems.
