Gum Arabic By Jinan For Advanced Business Co. Ltd.

We are engaged in trading and exporting excellent quality Gum Arabic in al-Khartum, al-Khartum, Sudan. Gum Arabic is a dried exudate obtained from the stems and branches of west sudan A. seyal is a closely related species. Gum arabic consists mainly of high-molecular weight polysaccharides and their calcium, magnesium, and potassium salts, which on hydrolysis yield arabinose, galactose, rhamnose, and glucuronic acid. Items of commerce may contain extraneous materials such as sand and pieces of bark which must be removed before use in food. Gum arabic from A. seyal is sometimes referred to as gum talha.
Gum Arabic from A. senegal is a pale white to orange-brown solid, which breaks with a glassy fracture. The best grades are in the form of whole, spheroidal tears of varying size with a matte surface texture. When ground, the pieces are paler and have a glassy appearance. Gum from other acacia species may not have the characteristic tear shape and are often darker in colour. Gum from A. seyal is more brittle than the hard tears of A. sudan . Gum arabic is also available commercially in the form of white to yellowish-white flakes, granules, powder, roller-dried, or spray-dried material.
