Descripción general

Gum arabic from acacia tree is extracted from the branches of Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal trees. It is an edible dried gummy exudate. Gum Arabic has high solubility and is used in food industry as a stabilizer, emulsifier, flavouring agent, thickener and surface-finishing agent. It initiates turbidity or hinders sugar crystallization. Gum arabic inhibits color pigmentation and protein precipitation in wine production.[1]

Aplicación

Gum arabic from acacia tree has been used:
  • as an emulsifying agent to determine lipase activity in shrimps[2]
  • for the visualization of mossy fiber sprouting[3]
  • as an immunogen and for coating microtitre wells in plate-trapped antigen ELISAs (PTA-ELISAs)[4]
  • for silver enhancement for immunohistochemistry[5]
  • as a component for Timm′s staining solution[6]
  • in nitrocellulose-based soil adhesion assay[7]
  • to separate few-layer graphene (FLG) from bulk graphite layers[8]

Otras notas

Believed to be a branched polymer of galactose, rhamnose, arabinose, and glucuronic acid as the calcium, magnesium, and potassium salts with a mol. wt. of approx. 250,000.

Questions

1–6 of 6 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  3. Can you provide a description of the polysaccharide in Gum arabic from acacia tree, Product G9752?

    1 answer
    1. The polysaccharide in gum arabic is branched with a main chain of (1->3) linked β-D-galactopyranosyl units, with side chains of (1->3) β-D-galactopyranosyl units joined to it by (1->6) links. The side chains are two to five units in length. Both main chains and side chains have attached units of α-L-arabinofuranosyl, α-L-rhamnopyranosyl, β-D-glucuronopyranosyl and 4-O-methyl-β-D-glucuronopyranosyl units.
