Gellan Gum in Plant-Based Cheese, Egg and Seafood

Where gellan gum helps in plant-based cheese, egg and seafood: water binding, fat stabilisation, cooked-egg-white texture and analogue structure.

Gellan Gum in Plant-Based Meat: How It Changes Texture, Rheology and Structure

A 2026 study investigated how gellan gum and other charged polysaccharides affect the texture, rheology, and microstructure of camellia oleosome-based meat analogs, showing how polysaccharide selection can change the structure of plant-based meat products.

Gellan Gum in Plant-Based Milk: Stabilization, Protein Interaction and Mouthfeel

Learn how gellan gum helps stabilize plant-based milk, reduce protein and particle sedimentation, and improve mouthfeel, with a focus on protein interactions, heat processing, ions, and HA versus LA gellan gum.

How Is Gellan Gum Used in Plant-Based Meat?

Gellan gum can be used in plant-based meat formulations to improve water retention, texture and structural stability, especially in products that need to hold their shape during cooking.

How Is Gellan Gum Used in Plant-Based Yogurt?

Gellan gum can be used in plant-based yogurt to improve texture, reduce phase separation and provide a stable spoonable structure during storage.
