Tremella fuciformis is an edible fungus widely cultivated in East Asia. Its polysaccharide fraction is the component most often extracted and standardised for food and supplement use.
Processing Characteristics in Food Production
Tremella polysaccharide is notable for the uniformity of its polysaccharide fraction, which accounts for roughly 70-75% of the total polysaccharides. Because solution viscosity increases with concentration and the fraction contributes emulsification stability, it is used in beverage, dairy and cold-drink processing, where it can improve processing behaviour and reduce reliance on composite additives.
Standardisation
Commercial tremella polysaccharide is normally specified by polysaccharide content rather than by extract ratio alone. Standard market grades are available and custom standardisation can be produced to order. Exact parameters are confirmed per order and stated in the batch Certificate of Analysis.
