This study was conducted to compare the effects of four types of dietary fiber supplementations (cellulose, pectin, guar gum, and polydextrose) on gastrointestinal function, diabetic symptom amelioration and lipid & glucose metabolism in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Six groups of male rats were fed ad libitum dietary fiber-free control diet or one of experimental diets containing 5% dietary fiber for four weeks. All types of dietary fiber supplementation seemed to protect the diabetic animals from the loss of body weight. The primary diabetic symptoms such as polydipsia, polyphasia, polyuria and urinary glucose excretion were ameliorated by cellulose, pectin, and guar gum, but not by polydextrose. Gastrointestinal transit time was significantly shortened and fecal dry weight was significantly increased in all the dietary fiber-supplemented groups except the polydextrose group. Large intestine was significantly lengthened by dietary fiber feeding. The serum triglyceride and total cholesterol levels were effectively lowered by pectin, guar gum and polydextrose. Regardless of their types, the fiber supplementation had no effect on serum HDL-cholesterol. Whereas fasting blood glucose level was significantly lowered by all types of fiber supplementations, glucose tolerance was more effectively improved by pectin and guar gum.

Today's paper industry tries to use greater amount of high yield pulp and recycled fiber and to close mill water system, which results in higher fines content and buildup of organic and inorganic contaminants in white water system. Researches are being focused to develop chemical additives that provide good retention and drainage in a closed papermaking system. A microparticle retention system consisted of cationic guar gum and anionic colloidal silica so has been developed to meet the requirements for improving machine speed and product quality. The objective of this investigation was to determine the effects of the degree of cationic guar gums, charge density and structure of anionic colloidal silica sols, and the degree of system closure on the performances of this microparticle retention system. Cationic guar gums and anionic colloidal silica sols with higher charge densities showed better retention performance. Particularly, wider maximum in retention was obtained when structure colloidal silica was used suggesting as mechanism of microparticle bridging is functioning in this system.

본 연구는 소금의 첨가수준을 저수준(1.5%)으로 고정시키고, 인산염 대체가능성이 있는 다양한 기능성 소재들의 수준을 달리하여 원료돈육의 가공특성, 유화안정성 및 육색 등에 미치는 첨가효과를 구명하였다. 기능성 물질의 첨가는 원료돈육의 일반성분과 pH에는 유의적인 영향을 미치지 않았다. 보수력과 가열 감량에 있어 후보 물질들과 인산염 처리구 간에 유의적인 변화가 나타났고, 구아검, 카라기난, 알긴산이 인산염 대체에 적적한 특성을 보였다. 유화안정성에서는 인산염, 알긴산과 구아검 첨가구가 유의적으로 높은 안정성을 나타냈어 이후 실제 가공품에의 적용가능성을 나타냈다. 이상의 결과에서 카라기난과 구아검의 경우인산염과 유사한 가공특성, 유화안정성과 육색을 나타내어 육제품 제조용 인산염 대체첨가물질로 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

미생물이 생산하는 생물 고분자의 기능성 당색 및 용도 재발 연구의 일환으로. Bacillus sp.의 알카리 발효에 의해 생합성된 점성의 생물 분자의 리올로지 특성을 다른 미생들 다당 및 식뮬 다당류와 비교하면서 검토하였다. 1% 정제 고분자 용액은 xanthan gum 및 guar gum과 마찬가지로 항복응럭을 갖는 의가소성 유체의 거동을 널었다. 유동지수(n)값은 0.41 - 0.75로 전단속도 의존성을 보였으며, 점조도지수(K)값은 0.87 Pa $s^n$으로 guar gum보다는 작고 xanthan gum 보다는 컸다. 그러나 항복응력 (${\tau}_y$)값은 2.28Pa로 xanthan gum이나 guar gum보다 크게 낮았다. 또 정제고분자의 점조도지수(K)값은 지수 함수식에 따르는 농도 및 온도 의존성을 나타내었다. 농도 의존성은 기울기가 서로 달라지는 두 개의 직선관계를 나타냈으며, 농도가 증가에 따라 의가소성은 강해졌다. 시료 용액은 온도 의존성이 매우 낮은 특징을 나타내었고, 유동의 활성화에너지지는 1.16kcal/g mol이었다. 겉보기 점도는 pH와 염의 변화에 매우 불안정함을 나타내었으나 유기용매에 대하여는 어느 정도 안정함을 보였고, 점증제를 첨가하였을 때 겉보기 점도의 상승효과는 관찰되지 않았다.

Objective: The present work was undertaken to determine the possibility of using xanthan and guar gums as stabilizers to enhance the yogurt quality. Methods: Yogurt was manufactured from standardized milk (3.5% fat, 8.5% solid-not-fat contents) with the addition of 2% to 3% starter culture. Enzyme-hydrolyzed xanthan gum (0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%) and guar gum (0.1%, 0.5%, 1.0%) were added to the yogurt as stabilizers. Prepared yogurt samples were kept at refrigeration temperature (4℃±2℃) for 21 days and various quality and sensory parameters were studied at regular intervals (7 days). Results: Results showed that yogurt with 0.5% xanthan gum (T5) was best in terms of preventing syneresis and improving the viscosity, water holding capacity and texture of the product. Additionally, adding gums did not adversely affect the sensorial attributes of the product. Conclusion: Modified gums were found useful in augmenting yogurt quality and therefore addition of gums is highly recommended for manufacturing yogurt.

Various properties of cotton handsheet were measured to solve the problem of deformation while storing guar gum(natural polymer) and to improve strength and retention by synthetic polymers(A-PAM, C-PAM, CMC). The results of this study were summarized as follow. The cotton handsheet with 0.2% of A-PAM showed the best tensile index and folding endurance. Retention of fines and fillers in pulp slurry with 0.2% and 0.3% of A-PAM were more excellent than that with guar gum.

Guar 검, xanthan 검, pullulan을 첨가하여 증편을 제조하여 $4^{\circ}C$에서 저장한 시료의 수분함량의 변화는 유의차가 없었다. 검의 첨가 농도를 낮게 하여 증편을 제조한 경우에는 검 첨가증편의 경도가 무첨가군에 비해 감소하였으나 검의 첨가농도가 0.5% 이상을 첨가하게 되면 pullulan을 제외하고 경도가 무첨가군보다 높게 나타났다. 검류 첨가에 의해 증편의 노화 유형은 변화했으며, Avrami 지수는 pullulan과 xanthan검을 첨가한 경우에는 n=1에 가까운 값을 나타내어, xanthan 검과 pullulan의 노화 유형이 유사하게 나타났다. Pullulan의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 시간상수(1/k)도 5.37에서 15.65로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 실험결과에 의해 검류 첨가량에 따라 수분함량 변화가 거의 발생하지 않으며, 경도 변화도 적게 나타났다. Xanthan 검 또는 pullulan 첨가가 증편의 노화 속도를 늦춰줌으로써 노화가 지연되며 shelf-life 연장에 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, xanthan 검 또는 pullulan보다 guar 검 첨가한 경우가 가장 효과가 적음을 알 수 있었다.

Use of high yield pulp and recycled fiber as raw materials and water system closure result in higher fines content and buildup of organic and inorganic contaminants in white water. These are detrimental for the effectiveness of chemical additives including retention aids. Thus it is imperative to employ a retention systems that maintains its efficiency in closed papermaking system for reducing fresh water consumption. The performance of four different microparticle retention systems including cationic polyacrylamide (C-PAM)/bentonite, highly charged cationic starch (HCS)/silica, C-PAM/micropolymer, cationic guar gum (CGG)/silica was evaluated and compared at three different levels of papermaking system closure. Buildup of detrimental substances in a closed white water system increased cationic demand and finally reduced the performance of retention systems. Cationic starch and guar gums maintained their effectiveness in retention in closed white water systems contaminated with anionic trashes because of their structural rigidity and hydrogen bonding ability. Particularly, cationic guar gums, due its stiffness of molecular structure, appeared perform better than catinonic starch.

The trend of using more hardwood and recycled fibers, and closing more tightly of the paper mill white water system has resulted in build-up of fines as well as organic and inorganic contaminants in the white water. This changes in papermaking wet end requires developing chemical additive system that provides good fiber retention and drainage in closed white water system. In this study the effect of charge densities and chemical characteristics of microparticle systems consisted of cationic guar gums and anionic colloidal silica sols on drainage and retention have been examined. Results showed that higher charge density of cationic guar gum and anionic colloidal silica sol gave better retention and drainage. Particularly highly structured silica gave greater retention efficiency.

The use of gums in processed foods manufactured in Korea was investigated in this study. The information about gums added to each food was collected from the ingredient claimed on the food packaging. A total of 272 food items were found to use gums as a thickener, stabilizer, and/or emulsifier. Among them, carrageenan was the most frequently found in 110 items (40%), followed by xanthan gum in 87 items (32%), guar gum in 67 items (25%), arabic gum in 50 items (18%), and gellan gum in 28 items (10%). Application of more than two different gums to food items was also observed, presumably based on the synergistic interaction between gums for a specific physical property. Of nine food categories classified by the Korea Food Code, gums were used most frequently in beverages, noodles, and meat products. Foods for children which include confectioneries, beverages, and chocolates were found to frequently use arabic gum, carrageenan, xanthan gum, guar gum, or gellan gum. These results indicate that gums have been widely using in a variety of Korean processed foods in order to improve their physical properties. Considering potential health concern of some gums such as carrageenan, further study to estimate daily intake of gum is needed.
