Abstract
The present study involves the use of non-specific enzyme pullulanase (from Bacillus acidopullulyticus) to remove galactose residues from guar galactomannan to obtain modified guar galactomannan mimicking the functional properties of locust bean gum. The modified guar galactomannan blended with xanthan exhibited the rheological behaviour of elastic modulus (G′) greater than viscous modulus (G″) with a decrease in tan δ value similar to locust...
