Pullulan is natural water-soluble polysaccharide, produced from sucrose by fermentation. It is a linear, neutral glucan consisting mainly of maltotriose units linked through α-1, 6 - glucosidic bonds. It can form excellent film that is heat sealable as a good oxygen barrier as well as a printable film. This can be used widely as a thickening or extending agent, adhesives agent or encapsulating agent in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and industrial applications.It can also be used as the material of medicinal capsule shell,with no risk of cross-linking reaction,no interaction and very high stability.Shandong Freda Biotechnology Co., Ltd. is a hightech biotechnology enterprise engaged in the research, manufacture and marketing of bioengineering products, including biological macromolecules polymers, safe and healthy natural food additives and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients.Our Natamycin's has the largest market share-48% in the world.As a certified manufacturer,we are commited to provide the most cost-effective products with our customers around the world. Pullulan possesses some distinct properties such as excellent transparent film-forming ability, moisture absorptivity, water solubility, non-toxicity, and adhesivity.
