Scope of application: Gelatin is widely used in many areas of the modern food industry. In the meat and fish industry, gelatin is used to make jellies, jellies and canned food; in the confectionery industry, it is used to make marmalade, dessert jellies, creams, chewable candies and chewing gum; in the dairy industry, gelatin is added to yoghurts, ice cream and various desserts; in the production of beverages, such as wines, food gelatin is often used to precipitate and reduce sugar content. lightening.
Beef gelatin is a protein material obtained by alkaline hydrolysis of connective tissues of animal raw materials, followed by extraction with hot water. Gelatin forms clear solutions of light color with a characteristic smell and neutral taste; easily hydrates water, soluble at temperatures above 30°C and solidifies when the solution is cooled.
The strength of food grade gelatin jelly is determined by Bloom. According to Bloom units, food grade gelatin is divided into the following types:: 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 250, 260, 280. Particle size is an equally important characteristic of gelatin. It determines the rate of dissolution of the ingredient. The choice of a specific fraction is determined by the technological features of production: the time and temperature of soaking the ingredient in water, the equipment used, and the diameter of the filter screens installed at the enterprise. Gelatin is produced with particle sizes of 08, 18, 20, 30 and 40 mesh.
a protein product that is a mixture of linear polypeptides with different molecular weights of animal origin.
It does not contain GMOs.
