We supply variable bloom strength and viscosity gelatin in bulk to meet diverse industrial application needs.
APPLICATION
Medical Applications
Gelatin plays a vital role in emergency medical treatment as a plasma expander. It’s used to restore blood volume after significant blood loss, effectively mimicking blood’s viscosity and molecular properties. This rapid volume replacement is critical in stabilizing patients.
For plasma expanders, gelatin must meet rigorous microbiological and endotoxin standards, ensuring patient safety. These stringent specifications guarantee the product’s purity and suitability for intravenous administration.
Gelatin also produces hemostatic sponges used in surgery. These sponges create localized hemostasis, controlling bleeding during procedures. They are absorbable, allowing them to be left in place post-operatively, simplifying procedures and promoting healing.
APPLICATION
Pet Food
Gelatin is a valuable ingredient in pet food, serving dual purposes. Its water-binding capacity improves food texture and palatability, making it more appealing to animals. This also helps maintain moisture levels in pet food products.
Gelatin’s protein content provides nutritional benefits for pets, contributing to their overall health and well-being. This protein source supports muscle development and maintenance in animals.
Similar to human applications, collagen peptides are used as supplements for pets, promoting joint and bone health. These supplements support mobility and flexibility in animals, particularly older or active pets.
APPLICATION
Clarification of Drinks
Gelatin is a key ingredient in clarifying drinks like fruit juice, cider, and beer. It acts as a reagent, binding to tannins and bitter substances that negatively affect taste and clarity. This binding improves the drink’s flavor profile by removing unwanted bitterness.
Gelatin also removes clouding agents by attracting and clumping them together for easier filtration. This process creates a clearer, more visually appealing beverage, enhancing its marketability and consumer appeal. A clear drink is often perceived as higher quality.
Gelatin’s clarifying action is essential for producing high-quality beverages. By removing undesirable components, it improves both taste and visual appeal, resulting in a more enjoyable consumer experience.
