Application
Tragacanth serves as a versatile natural gum derived from several Astragalus species, primarily found in the mountainous regions of the Middle East, particularly Iran. Harvested from the plant's exudate, this gum is processed into various forms such as ribbons, flakes, granules, or powder. Its unique ability to swell in water and form a highly viscous sol or paste makes it an ideal stabilizing and suspending agent. With a stable pH of 5-6 and notable acid resistance, tragacanth is utilized across various industries. In the food sector, it enhances the texture and stability of salad dressings, sauces, fruit fillings, and citrus beverages. Meanwhile, in pharmaceuticals, its emulsifying properties are leveraged in creams, gels, and emulsions. Additionally, tragacanth finds applications in cosmetics and serves as a diluent in tablet formulations, showcasing its multifaceted uses.
