Definitions
- This invention relates to a reduced molecular weight native gellan gum.
- Gellan gum is a high molecular weight polysaccharide produced by fermentation.
- the constituent sugars of gellan gum are glucose, glucuronic acid and rhamnose in the molar ratio of 2:1:1. These sugars are linked together to give a primary structure consisting of a linear tetrasaccharide repeat unit as shown below:
- Gums are primarily used to thicken or gel water and are frequently classified into two groups: thickeners and gelling agents.
- Typical thickeners include starches, guar gum, carboxymethylcellulose, alginate, methylcellulose, gum karaya and gum tragacanth.
- Common gelling agents include gelatin, starch, alginate, pectin, carrageenan, agar and methylcellulose.
- Gelling agents are used by the food industry in a variety of applications, including confectionery jellies, jams and jellies, dessert gels, icings and dairy products. Gelling agents differ in the conditions under which they can be used as well as in the texture of the gels they form. These distinctive properties of gels have led to the exclusive use of certain gelling agents in a number of products (e.g., starch in confectionery jellies; gelatin in capsules; agar in icings; and alginate in pimento strips) .
- Gels can be formed in a number of ways. Gels which form upon cooling a hot solution of the gelling agent are classified as thermally setting gels. Typical thermally setting gels include gelatin, blends of xanthan gum and locust bean gum, and agar. Gels which require addition of ions to the gelling agent solution in order to set are classified as ionic setting gels. Common ionic setting gels include alginate, kappa carrageenan, low methoxy pectin and gellan gum.
- ionic setting gels are ion specific.
- alginate and low methoxy pectin both require the presence of Ca 2+ ions in order to gel, while kappa carrageenan will gel only in the presence of K + ions.
- Gellan gum is unique among ionic setting gelling agents because it forms gels with almost all ions, including hydrogen ions.
- gelatin which is used to prepare, among other products, dessert gels that are popular in many parts of the world.
- gelatin is a protein derived from animal sources.
- Gelatin possesses many desirable characteristics, including a melting temperature below body temperature. Consequently, gels made from gelatin melt in the mouth; this characteristic provides enhanced organoleptic properties.
- many consumers today are interested in food products which are free from ingredients derived from animal sources. Consequently, it would be desirable to provide a gelling agent, derived from a non-animal source, which could be used in place of gelatin in selected food products.
- Native gellan gum which is produced by bacterial fermentation, forms gels that have a texture similar to that of gelatin gels. But solutions prepared with native gellan gum are highly viscous even at elevated temperatures. In addition, these solutions gel at high temperatures.
- compositions comprising reduced molecular weight gellan gums as well as a process of making such compositions.
- Figure 1 is a graph showing the effect of lowering the molecular weight of gellan gum on the gel setting temperature of 0.5% gellan gum solutions.
- Figure 2 is a graph showing the effect of lowering the molecular weight of gellan gum on the viscosity of gellan gum solutions at 95°C.
- reduced molecular weight gellan gum refers to gellan gum which has a molecular weight less than that of native gellan gum.
- native gellan gum refers to gellan gum produced by bacterial fermentation which has not been modified by physical or chemical means.
- gelling salt refers to any salt which induces solutions of gellan gum to form a gel.
- the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of this invention generally have a weight average molecular weight less than about 1.7 X 10 6 , and typically in a range of about 1.4 X 10 6 to about 4.0 X 10 s .
- the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention provide several advantages over native gellan gum.
- reduced molecular weight gellan gum solutions provide reduced viscosity at elevated temperatures. This characteristic is especially advantageous in solutions having a high sugar concentration where high viscosity is a problem during processing.
- compositions of the present invention comprise a reduced molecular weight gellan gum and water.
- the concentration of reduced molecular weight gellan gum in water will vary from about 0.05 weight percent to about 1.0 weight percent.
- the compositions are gels or solutions in which the reduced molecular weight gellan gum is completely hydrated.
- the present invention also provides compositions comprising a reduced molecular weight gellan gum, water, a gelling salt and a sequestrant.
- concentration of gelling salt in the compositions will vary depending upon the particular gelling salt used. For example, sodium and potassium gelling salts generally are used at concentrations ranging from about 0.020M to about 0.200M, while calcium and magnesium gelling salts typically are used at concentrations ranging from about 0.002M to about 0.015M.
- the amount of sequestrant used in the compositions typically ranges from about 0.05 percent to about 0.25 percent by weight.
- the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention When fully hydrated, the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention will form gels with many different ions.
- the gelling salt is a calcium salt, a sodium salt or a potassium salt. Most preferably, the gelling salt is CaCl 2 .
- Sodium citrate is the preferred sequestrant.
- Reduced molecular weight gellan gum solutions gel at a lower temperature than do solutions of native gellan gum.
- native gellan gum solutions usually gel between about 80°C and 95°C
- reduced molecular weight gellan gum solutions usually gel between about 60°C and about 85°C.
- Another advantage of the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention is that they provide gels with improved organoleptic properties. Compared to gels made with native gellan gum, gels made with reduced molecular weight gellan gum exhibit reduced cohesiveness, elasticity and firmness. Consequently, these gels have a better mouth feel than do gels prepared from native gellan gum.
- the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention may be prepared by any method which reduces the molecular weight of polymers. Such methods include homogenization, sonication, radiation, oxidation and hydrolysis. Preferably, the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention are prepared by homogenization. Native gellan gum is available as Kelcogel LT-100 from the NutraSweet Kelco Company (San Diego, CA) .
- the sample containing the polymer is forced at high pressure (e.g. , greater than 500 psi) through a small orifice. This process causes the polymer to break into smaller segments. The homogenization process may be repeated to achieve further reduction in the molecular weight of the polymer. Sonication also may be used to reduce the molecular weight of water soluble polymers. This method involves exposing the polymer sample to high frequency waves.
- gamma radiation from either cobalt or electron beam sources also can reduce the molecular weight of water soluble polymers.
- the molecular weight reduction occurs most readily when the polymer is in the hydrated, rather than dry form.
- the molecular weight of some polymers may be reduced by exposing the polymer to an oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide. This oxidative degradation is enhanced by transition metal cations such as iron. It is inhibited by oxygen and free radical scavengers such as ascorbate or propyl gallate.
- an oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide.
- This oxidative degradation is enhanced by transition metal cations such as iron. It is inhibited by oxygen and free radical scavengers such as ascorbate or propyl gallate.
- Acid hydrolysis is a well known technique to reduce the molecular weight of polymers. It is commonly used in chemical analysis of polysaccharides to break them down to their constituent sugars. Although many different acids may be used, generally weak acids are easier to work with than strong acids.
- the reduced molecular weight gellan gums of the present invention may be used as gelling agents in a variety of fluid food products including confectionery jellies, jams and jellies, dessert gels, icings and dairy products, such as, e.g., ice cream, frozen yogurt, cottage cheese, sour cream, non-dairy frozen toppings and bakery fillings.
- the hydrated sample was then homogenized at 80°C -
- the procedure used was as described in Example 1, except that the gellan gum sample was passed through the homogenizer 4 times. The additional homogenizations yielded further reductions in the molecular weight of the gellan gum.
- Sufficient reduced molecular weight gellan gum prepared as described in Example 1 above, was added to deionized water while mixing at 800 rpm with a propeller mixer to yield a gel with a gum concentration of 0.5%. After stirring for 10 minutes, the sample was heated to 95°C. After the gum was fully hydrated, a solution of 0.5 M CaCl 2 was added in an amount sufficient such that the final gel had a Ca 2+ ion concentration of 6mM. The solution was then poured into disk molds yielding gels approximately 7mm thick and 25 mm in diameter upon cooling.
- Example 3 The procedure used was as described in Example 3 , except that native gellan gum, rather than reduced molecular weight gellan gum, was used to prepare the gel, and the final concentration of gum in the gel was 0.5%.
- Texture dictates how a gel will deform under an applied force.
- the texture profile of a gel can be obtained by subjecting a gel sample to an increasing force and measuring the deformation that results.
- Samples prepared as described in Examples 3 , 4 and Comparative Example 1 were evaluated for texture profile analysis using the procedure described in Szczesniak, A.S., Classification of Textural Characteristics, J. Food Sci. f 28 (1963) 390, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.
- the disk gel samples were compressed using an Instron testing machine at a rate of 2 inches per minute and to a strain level of 80%. The modulus, hardness, brittleness, elasticity and cohesiveness of the samples were calculated. The results of these calculations are presented in Tables 1A and IB.
- Modulus indicates how firm the gel appears when lightly squeezed. Hardness is a measure of the force required to rupture the gel. Brittleness is a measure of how far the gel can be squeezed before it breaks. Elasticity is a measure of how much the gel springs back after the first compression cycle. Cohesiveness is an indication of the difficulty in breaking the gel down in the mouth.
- gels prepared from reduced molecular weight gellan gum are less cohesive, elastic and firm than gels prepared from native gellan gum.
- the gels were prepared as described in Examples 3 , 4 and Comparative Example 1, except that sugar, adipic acid, sodium citrate, disodium phosphate, fumaric acid, flavoring and coloring were added to the solution prior to adding 0.5M CaCl 2 .
- the amount of each added ingredient present in the final solution based upon a weight percent basis was as follows: sugar (13.48%), adipic acid (0.40%), sodium citrate (0.13%), disodium phosphate (0.13%), fumaric acid (0.11%), flavoring (0.02%), and color (0.01%).
- dessert gels prepared from reduced molecular weight gellan gum homogenized only once are about as cohesive, elastic and firm as dessert gels prepared from native gellan gum.
- dessert gels prepared from reduced molecular weight gellan gum homogenized four times are less cohesive, elastic and firm that dessert gels prepared from native gellan gum.
- the gel setting temperature of a native gellan gum solution and two reduced molecular weight gellan gum solutions was measured using a Rheometric Scientific SR-200 controlled stress rheo eter (Piscataway, N.J.).
- the instrument was set in parallel plate mode with a 50 mm top plate and a Peltier temperature controlled bottom plate. The sample was placed on the bottom plate which had been pre-heated to 95°C, and the top plate was lowered to provide a gap of 1 mm. Evaporation was controlled using the supplied solvent evaporation accessory. While measuring at a frequency of 10 radians per second with an applied strain of 2 to 5 percent, the sample was cooled from 95°C to 50°C and the visceoelastic properties were measured. The elastic modulus, G' , was measured to determine the set temperature. When the G' value exceeded 10 dynes per cm 2 , the sample was considered to have begun to set. This temperature is referred to as the "set temperature.”
- the reduced molecular weight gellan gums were prepared as described in Example 1.
- One of the reduced molecular weight gellan gum solutions was prepared from gellan gum which had been homogenized once, while the other reduced molecular weight gellan gum solution was prepared using gellan gum which had been homogenized four times.

- the native gellan gum solution was prepared by hydrating sufficient gellan gum in deionized water to yield a 0.5% gellan gum solution, followed by addition of sufficient 0.5M CaCl 2 to yield a solution with a Ca 2+ ion concentration of 6mM.
- the viscosity of a native gellan gum solution and the viscosity of two reduced molecular weight gellan gum solutions were measured at 95°C using a Rheometric Scientific SR-200 controlled stress rheometer.
- the instrument set-up was as described in Examples 6.

The results of these measurements are presented in Figure 2.
- solutions prepared from reduced molecular weight gellan gum have lower viscosities at elevated temperatures than do solutions prepared using native gellan gum.
- Native gellan broth was clarified as follows: to approximately 4 liters of a 1.5% gellan gum broth solution was added sufficient sodium hypochloride to yield a solution having a sodium hypochloride concentration of 1000 pp . The solution was stirred for 2 hours at 40°C, followed by addition of sufficient Lysozyme (Genencor, Palo Alto, California) to yield a solution having a Lysozyme concentration of 50 ppm. The resultant solution was stirred for 2 hours at 40°C, followed by addition of sufficient HT Protease (Miles Enzymes, Elkhart,
