Application of CMC FG5000
KimaCell® CMC FG5000 sodium carboxymethyl cellulose can be used as an edible coating material, which can be mixed with other thickeners and applied on the surface of some foods to maximize the freshness of foods. As an edible material, it will not cause adverse effects on human health. Therefore, as an ideal food additive, edible CMC Na is widely used in food production in the food industry. It has good film-forming property, rich sources, low cost, non-toxic and harmless, and is easy to degrade. Now it is widely used in the field of food preservation. It can not only effectively prevent water loss, regulate fruit respiration, slow down the loss of organic matter, delay fruit aging, but also protect the peel, reduce mechanical damage during transportation, prevent microbial invasion, and reduce the risk of decay.
