2018
Salarbashi, Davoud | Tafaghodi, Mohsen
Natural gums are complex polysaccharides polymers commonly used as plasticizing, emulsifying, stabilizing, thickening, gelling, binding and coating agents, fat replacer, flavor encapsulator, and carrier. Plant seed gums, which are used in biomedical and biopharmaceutical fields, have attracted the attention of researchers due to their unique characteristics. The functional characteristics and potential application of natural polymers considerably depend on their structural and physicochemical properties. The aims of the present review were, therefore, first, summarize the structural and physicochemical properties of newly seed gums and then investigation of the relation between these properties with their functional characteristics to explore their potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, paper, and other industries.
