May 15, 2013· Locust bean gum is a popular natural polymer which is mostly used in food industry as well as in pharmaceutical industry.This natural polymer is conventionally used as an excipients in manufacturing different formulation which mainly depends on its thickening and gelling property (Paramita et al., 2011).Locust bean gum is a non starch polysaccharides consisting of galactose and mannose …
Feb 10, 1998· The gelation of locust bean gum in concentrated sucrose solutions has been studied as a function of temperature, LBG and sucrose concentrations. A critical gelling concentration of approximately 1% w/w LBG in 60% w/w sucrose was measured. The gelation rate initially increased with decreasing temperature until a maximum in gelation rate was found close to −5 °C. Along with the …
Background and Objective: Cubing is a process of consolidating bulk agricultural products to allow precise sizing prior to packaging and marketing. This research was undertaken to develop a locust bean cubing machine. Materials and Methods: The machine was designed to cube 2 kg of fermented locust beans with the help of a piston-connecting rod arrangement, as a conveying mechanism.

11LOCUST BEAN. The West African locust looks nothing like what Westerners might consider a vegetable plant to be. It is a tree. A true Jack-and-the-beanstalk kind of crop, it is indeed related to beans, albeit distantly. It often grows more than 20 meters tall, and people harvest all the pods they can get, sometimes climbing all the way to the top.
The initial time and temperature were zero minute and 30°C respectively. The temperature increases from 30°C to 90°C, the temperature at which the locust bean was boiled, this is in agreement with the works of Oseni et. al., 26 in their development of a locust bean processing device. The time interval with respect to temperature rise was 5 ...
