Gum is derived from guar Seeds or Cyamopsis tetragonoloba termed as Guar Gum. Guar Gum can also be termed as guaran. These seeds have high low-shear viscosity as evaluated with other hydrocolloids like (locust bean gum). Guar Gums are effective thickeners and stabilizers. Guar Gum is relatively cost effective as compared to other thickeners and stabilizers along with it being an effective binder, plasticizer, and emulsifier. One of the important properties of guar gum, a polysaccharide, is that it is high on galactose and mannose. Guar gum is also known as guarkernmehl, guaran, goma guar, gomme guar, and galactomannan. Guar Gum acts as a suspending agent in fruit beverages, maintains viscosity, Improves mouth feel. It improves the free-flowing properties of sauce and reduces the separation between water and oil phases. It is a unique cold water dispersible, acid-resistant, free water binder in salad dressings, sauce, pickles, and relishes.
