APPLICATIONS OF SODIUM ALGINATE IN FOOD INDUSTRY

Sodium alginate,as the thickener,stabilizer and emulsifier,is mainly used

in food industry such as in beverage,bread,suger and refrigeration and

preservation.

1) Iced food: sodium alginate is taken as a stabilizer of ice cream due to
its dense organization and slow solution speed. It is also the main
material of dainty cold powder and jelly
2) Cake food: as a stabilizer of cake, cookies, bread, fine dried noodle, and
chocolates, sodium alginate can keep sweet scent for cookies and avoid
falling into pieces. It makes noodle smooth and reduces breaking ratio
of noodles and fragmentation of bread. Sodium alginate is also a good
thickener of jam, chili sauce, jelly, tomato ketchup, fishpaste, pudding
and salad flavoring
3)Synthetic food: sodium alginate is the main material of seaweed,
synthetic grape and synthetic cherry
4) Cold storage and fresh keeping: when fruits, fish and other foods are
covered with the film of sodium alginate to be kept isolated from air,
the film will stop bacteria from invading, constraint water evaporation
of food itself and prolong time of preservation
