Galactomannans
Galactomannans are plant-derived carbohydrate gums useful in diverse
processes such as ice cream manufacture and concrete flow.
The main sources of galactomannans for industry are carob (Ceratonia
siliqua), native to Mediterranean countries, and guar (Cyamopsis
tetragonolobus), a native of India and Pakistan. Many other species
have been examined for commercial potential .
Very few species have achieved any commercial impact on the
galactomannan market. One exception is gum sourced from Senna tora
(Cassia tora) and S. obtusifolia (C. obtusifolia). Another new gum
becoming traded on world markets is tara gum which has recently been
produced in small amounts from the seeds of the tara tree,
Caesalpinia spinosa, in Peru.
Research Institutions have introduced
some potential sources of seed gum, which posses useful non-ionic
and solution properties to be utilized for various industrial
applications. It include Dhaincha gum from Sesbania bispinosa and
cassis gum from Cassia tora and Cassia Siamea. These gums have been
produced in India in handsome amount for varied industrial
applications and export
