Zusammenfassung

Agar wird aus Rotalgen gewonnen. Es liegt als Mischung aus Agarose und Agaropektin vor, wobei Agarose die wünschenswerteren Eigenschaften hat. Seine Anwendungen werden hauptsächlich seinen rheologischen Eigenschaften zugeschrieben. Solche Anwendungen erstrecken sich auf die Lebensmittel-, Biotechnologie- und Pharmaindustrie, wo Agar als thermoreversibler Geliermittel, Stabilisator, Texturmodifikator und Verdickungsmittel verwendet wird. Die Fähigkeit, als Ersatzadditiv für die aus Tieren gewonnene Gelatine zu dienen, trägt ebenfalls zu seinem wirtschaftlichen Wert bei. In diesem Kapitel werden die Extraktion, Chemie, Vorkommen in der Natur und Anwendungen diskutiert. Dabei werden die wirtschaftlichen und ökologischen Auswirkungen der Agar-Produktion bewertet.
