Succinoglycan

Succinoglycan (CAS 73667-50-2) is a high-molecular-weight exopolysaccharide produced by bacterial fermentation, primarily from Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Where is Succinoglycan used?

• Food: thickener and texture stabilizer in sauces, dressings and dairy-based products
• Pharmaceutical: matrix-forming agent in controlled-release tablets and suspending agent in liquid dosage forms
• Biotechnology: functional biopolymer in microbial culture media and biofilm-related research
• Topical formulation bases: moisture retention for sustained hydration
• It functions as a rheology modifier and stabilizer, delivering viscosity control and gel-forming behavior in aqueous systems.

Commercial specifications

• Food-grade and research-grade specifications; purity and molecular weight profiles vary by intended application
• Packaging from small laboratory quantities to bulk industrial-scale quantities
