Handbook of Hydrocolloids: A Guide to Agar Agar
Agar is a seaweed hydrocolloid with a long history of use as a gelling, thickening, and stabilizing food additive.
The use of agar in foods is widespread throughout the Far East, including Japan, China, Korea, the Philippines, and Indonesia, and it has contributed significantly to the food customs in these countries for 350 years.
Agar could also be widely used for solid culture media in microbiology.

الميزات
| هـ-رقم | E 406 |
| المنشأ | مستخلص الأعشاب البحرية |
التركيب الكيميائي | Galactose and anhydro-galactose; low sulfate content (<4.5%, mostly 1.5–2.5%) |
| القيمة الغذائية (في 100 غرام) - التمثيل الغذائي | 1425 kJ (340 kcal); slow resorption |
| Fiber content | 2.2% (42% protein, 36% carbohydrates) |
| علم السموم | No health concerns, consumption generally 1–2 g per day (mild laxative effect at 6 g per day); no ADI value defined; considered as food in Asia, not as an additive |
| الذوبان عند درجة حرارة منخفضة (H2O) | غير قابل للذوبان |
| مظهر المحلول المائي | Opaque, yellowish |
| لزوجة المحلول في الماء | Low, insoluble in cold water |
| تأثير الحرارة على اللزوجة في الماء (الرقم الهيدروجيني 7) | Soluble at T>80 °C (176 °F) |
Viscosity development in water at pH 7 (T=0–100 °C) | Forms a thermoreversible gel after the dissolution and cooling to 35 °C (95 °F) (gel melts at T>85 °C (185 °F)) |
| ثبات القص | عالية |
| تأثير السماكة | High (gel formation) |
| ثبات الأس الهيدروجيني | Medium, hydrolysis by cooking in an acidic system |
| التحلل | Combination of heat+low pH (below pH 4) |
| تشكيل الفيلم | عالية |
| تثبيت المستحلب | لا يوجد |
| الهلامية | Thermoreversible gelation after heating to T>80 °C (176 °F) and cooling to 35 °C (95 °F); also gels in saturated sugar solutions; gelation temperature is independent of sugar concentration |
| قوة الجل وثبات الجل | High gel strength, gels are highly heat-stable |
| شفافية الجل | Low |
| Tendency for gel synaeresis | عالية |
| تأثير الشوارد (الكاتيونات +، 2+، 3+) | لا يوجد |
| التفاعل مع أيونات Ca2+ Ca2+ | لا يوجد |
| نشاط البروتين | Low/no |
| التحكم في التبلور | لا يوجد |
التأثيرات التآزرية مع الهيدروكولويدات المائية الأخرى | + LBG or guar: less syneresis, more elasticity; + 10% LBG: maximum gel strength (+8%); + 10% konjac: maximum gel strength |
| تأثيرات تآزرية أخرى | Enhanced gel strength with high sugar concentrations (>60%) for some agar types |
التفاعلات السلبية | Tannic acid can inhibit the gelling process; gum karaya reduces the gel strength of agar gels; Proton scavengers like potassium iodide, urea, Guanidine, sodium thiocyanate, and so on block the gelling process and prevent agarose gel formation |
| مستوى الجرعة في الأطعمة | Low, typical 0.5-2%, gelation already at 0.2% |
المزايا
Compared with other hydrocolloids, Agar has many advantages, such as:
Plant-Based
A pure vegetable alternative to gelatin and it's perfectly healthy.
Gel hysteresis
The difference between the gelling and the melting temperature - which is around 50-60 °C (90-108 °F)
Low Dosage
Agar forms gels at very low concentrations (at 0.2%). The suggested use level in foods is quite low, typically 0.5-2%.
No cations Needed
Agar does not require cations to gel. Its solubility and gelation are not affected by the addition or presence of electrolytes.
Soluble Fibre
It has a high soluble fiber content that is not metabolized in humans and so it does not add calories to foods.
Agar Benefits
Healthy: Low in calories, fat, sugar, and carbohydrates, but high in soluble fiber; Good for Weight Loss, Digestive Health, Bone Health, and Brain Health.
Vegan: Seaweed-based gums, the perfect substitute for animal-derived gelatin;
Gel performance: Firmer and stronger gel
Lab Use: It can not be degraded by the bacteria, so used as the preferred medium used in laboratories to grow bacteria.

This combination of benefits results in agar maintaining its position as the hydrocolloid of choice in a number of specific food applications, particularly where firm, short-textured gels with good heat stability and good moisture stabilization are required.
AGAR IN FOOD APPLICATIONS:
- Dairy Products
Ice Creams, Puddings, Flans, Yogurts, Fermented Milk, Sorbets, Gelled Milk - Sweets and Confectionary
Gumdrops, Candy bars, Jelly candies, Jams, Marmalades, Comfitures, Dessert Gel, Meringues - Meat Products
Pureed Meats, Canned fish, Poultry - Beverages
Clarifying and refining juices, beers, wines, and vinegars - Bakery
Cake icings, Pie fillings, Bread dough, Chiffon pies
OTHER INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS:
Although agar has multiple applications, the traditional one is a food ingredient that accounts for 80% of its consumption. The remaining 20% is accounted for by biotechnological applications.
Agar-agar gel has the interesting property of inhibiting the characteristic liquefying that occurs in the enzyme action of microorganisms. This property finds a wide variety of applications in the medical and pharmaceutical industries.
Agar-agar is used as a substratum in preparing bacteria cultures in microbiology, as laxatives and therapeutic agents in the treatment of malfunctions of the digestive tract, as a retarding agent and carrier in the management of medicines, antibiotics, vitamins, as a barium sulfate suspension agent in radiology, as a stabilizer in cholesterol solutions, and as a suspension agent in several types of emulsions.
Agar-agar has other industrial applications as well where a gelling agent is needed, such as in dental prosthetics, photographic emulsions, differentiation of proteins through electrophoresis, chromatography through the exclusion of sizes, molding of materials, and as plant culture tissues in biotechnology.
