Sodium alginate is a naturally derived polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed. It has a wide range of uses across different industries due to its gelling, thickening, stabilizing, and film-forming properties. Here are its main uses: 1. Food Industry • Thickening agent: In sauces, syrups, and dressings. • Gelling agent: Especially in molecular gastronomy (e.g., for spherification). • Stabilizer: In ice cream and dairy products to prevent ice crystal formation. • Meat and restructured foods: Improves texture and water retention. 2. Pharmaceutical Industry • Controlled drug release: Used in tablets and capsules for slow-release mechanisms. • Wound dressings: Calcium alginate dressings help absorb exudate and promote healing. • Antacid formulations: Combines with calcium carbonate in products like Gaviscon
