ROKOAGAR RGM 800 is a natural polysaccharide extracted from red seaweed, mainly Gelidium and Gracilaria. ROKOAGAR RGM 800 is used as a gelling and stabilizing agent in food applications. As a gelling agent, ROKOAGAR RGM 800 forms strong and thermo-reversible gels upon cooling without the addition of other substances. This provides benefits in food production and processing by allowing for varied textures and holding abilities in products. ROKOAGAR RGM 800 also acts as a stabilizer by providing high water retention, which is useful in maintaining food quality, structure and shelf life. Its low viscosity when hot also makes it suitable for food applications requiring heat treatment and processing.
