Suddenly speak of gelatin, most people may not be able to respond. In fact, the name of this product is very much, because in different areas of the different purposes, people easily confused. Today, let's take a closer look at this gelatin products.
In fact, someone has asked the gelatin manufacturer whether gelatin is transparent. Of course, the answer is no. You can think of it as a protein. In fact, it is the product of collagen hydrolysis. Collagen is a rich protein widely distributed in mammals, which can effectively improve the water storage function of skin tissue cells. Because of collagen, human skin can become soft, delicate and smooth.
Gelatin is an effective protective colloid, which can prevent the aggregation of crystals or ions. It is used to stabilize heterogeneous suspension and as an emulsifier in oil-in-water dispersion. It is an important ingredient and additive in the food industry. In the production of meat products, cakes, ice cream, beer, juice, etc., it is often used as gelling agent, stabilizer, emulsifier, thickener and clarifier.
Gelatin solution can form gel with certain hardness and no flow. When gel is stimulated by the environment, it will react, that is, when the composition, pH value and ionic strength of the solution change, as well as the temperature, light intensity and electric field and other stimulus signals change, or when gel is stimulated by specific chemicals, gel will mutate and show phase change behavior.
Medical gelatin is also high-grade gelatin. After complex physical and chemical treatment, animal skin, bones and tendons can be obtained. It has the physical characteristics of high viscosity, high freezing force, easy freezing and easy absorption by human body.
