Polysaccharides
Aprofood offers polysaccharides with good water retention, antioxidant properties and stability for food preservation. These polysaccharides not only ensure the freshness of the food, but also improve the taste and texture of the food and extend the shelf life of the food.
The Role of Polysaccharides in Food Preservation
Polysaccharides can be used as a substrate for food preservation materials due to their good molecular structure and natural origin. Polysaccharides have excellent hygroscopicity and water absorption, which can prevent food from drying out due to water loss in food, and keep the freshness and taste of food. In addition, polysaccharides contain many hydroxyl groups, which can scavenge free radicals in food and slow down the oxidization process of food, achieving the effect of preventing food spoilage.

- Inhibit microbial growth
Polysaccharides have the effect of inhibiting microbial growth, which can reduce bacteria and mold in food, ensuring food hygiene and safety.
- Improve flavor
Polysaccharides have strong masking properties, which can mask some of the bad flavors in food and improve the eating experience of food.
- Improvement of food structure
Polysaccharides also have the function of improving the structure of food, increasing the consistency of food, enhancing the coagulability and stability, which makes the food more beautiful and tastes better.
- Low cost
The use of polysaccharide for preservation, compared with other preservation techniques, the input cost is low, which is conducive to reducing production costs and improving economic efficiency.
