Xanthan and locust bean gums are polysaccharides able to produce aqueous solutions with high viscosity and non-Newtonian behaviour. When these solutions are mixed a dramatic increase on viscosity is observed, much greater than the combined viscosity of the separated polysaccharide solutions. In this

The gelation process of locust bean gum (LBG) aqueous solution has been studied by rheological and calorimetric measurements. The storage modulus of the gel was found to be dependent on repeating cycles of the freezingΓthawing process and freezing speed. When freezingΓthawing was repeated more than
## Abstract Gum ghatti contains a soluble gum and an insoluble gel which partially dissolves on boiling. Maceration of the gel in water gives a perfectly stable dispersion which for practical purposes behaves as a solution. The viscosity of the gel dispersion is __ca__ 10β30 times that of the solub
