GELATINE

CAS NO:9000-70-8
EC NO:232-554-6

Gelatin or gelatine (from Latin: gelatus meaning "stiff" or "frozen") is a translucent, colorless, flavorless food ingredient, commonly derived from collagen taken from animal body parts.
Gelatine is brittle when dry and rubbery when moist.
Gelatine may also be referred to as hydrolyzed collagen, collagen hydrolysate, gelatine hydrolysate, hydrolyzed gelatine, and collagen peptides after it has undergone hydrolysis.
Gelatine is commonly used as a gelling agent in food, beverages, medications, drug and vitamin capsules, photographic films and papers, and cosmetics.

Substances containing gelatin or functioning in a similar way are called gelatinous substances.
Gelatine is an irreversibly hydrolyzed form of collagen, wherein the hydrolysis reduces protein fibrils into smaller peptides; depending on the physical and chemical methods of denaturation, the molecular weight of the peptides falls within a broad range.
Gelatine is in gelatin desserts, most gummy candy and marshmallows, ice creams, dips, and yogurts.
Gelatine for cooking comes as powder, granules, and sheets. Instant types can be added to the food as they are; others must soak in water beforehand.

Properties
Gelatine is a collection of peptides and proteins produced by partial hydrolysis of collagen extracted from the skin, bones, and connective tissues of animals such as domesticated cattle, chicken, pigs, and fish. During hydrolysis, some of the bonds between and within component proteins are broken.
Gelatines chemical composition is, in many aspects, closely similar to that of its parent collagen. Photographic and pharmaceutical grades of gelatin generally are sourced from cattle bones and pig skin.
Gelatine is classified as a hydrogel.
Gelatine is nearly tasteless and odorless with a colorless or slightly yellow appearance.
Gelatine is transparent and brittle, and it can come as sheets, flakes, or as a powder.

Culinary uses
Probably best known as a gelling agent in cooking, different types and grades of gelatin are used in a wide range of food and nonfood products. Common examples of foods that contain gelatin are gelatin desserts, trifles, aspic, marshmallows, candy corn, and confections such as Peeps, gummy bears, fruit snacks, and jelly babies.
Gelatine may be used as a stabilizer, thickener, or texturizer in foods such as yogurt, cream cheese, and margarine; it is used, as well, in fat-reduced foods to simulate the mouthfeel of fat and to create volume. It also is used in the production of several types of Chinese soup dumplings, specifically Shanghainese soup dumplings, or xiaolongbao, as well as Shengjian mantou, a type of fried and steamed dumpling.
Gelatine is used for the clarification of juices, such as apple juice, and of vinegar.

Cosmetics
In cosmetics, hydrolyzed collagen may be found in topical creams, acting as a product texture conditioner, and moisturizer. Collagen implants or dermal fillers are also used to address the appearance of wrinkles, contour deficiencies, and acne scars, among others. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved its use, and identifies cow (bovine) and human cells as the sources of these fillers. According to the FDA, the desired effects can last for 3–4 months, which is relatively the most short-lived compared to other materials used for the same purpose.

Gelatine is a protein substance.
Gelatine derived from collagen found in the tissue of mammals, in the connection points of muscles and bones, and other organs and in the skin.
Gelatine has been producing via long production processes from the skin, bones and connective tissue of the animals. There are 2 different manufacturing processes in order to get gelatin; the acid and alkaline method. In order to get gelatin the collagen are exposed to alkaline hydrolysis (type B gelatin) or acid hydrolysis (type A gelatin).

Gelatine is a very strong nutrient in terms of amino acid. Because its structure consists to 84-86% out of protein, it is a nutrient rich for protein.

Gelatine is a 100% natural, safe and healthy ingredient that is widely used in the food and pharmaceutical sectors.

Gelatine is a versatile ingredient with multiple functional properties that make it special & unique. In cold water, it swells, transforming the liquid into a gel structure. In hot water, it is completely soluble.

Gelatine contains 85% to 95% protein and eight of the nine key amino acids essential for the normal functioning of the human body.

Gelatine is a protein made from the skins and bones of pigs and cows.
Gelatine's a common ingredient in a number of products, including:
Makeup

Gelatine is a heterogeneous mixture of water-soluble proteins of high average molecular weights, present in collagen. The proteins are extracted by boiling skin, tendons, ligaments, bones, etc. in water. Type A gelatin is derived from acid-cured tissue and Type B gelatin is derived from lime-cured tissue.

Application using gelatine includes coating cell culture plates to improve cell attachment for a variety of cell types, addition to PCR to help stabilize Taq DNA polymerase, and use as a blocking reagent in Western blotting, ELISA, and immunohistochemistry. In bacteriology, gelatin can be used as a component of culture media for species differentiation. Additionally, as a biocompatible polymer, gelatin has been used as a delivery vehicle for the release of bioactive molecules6 and in the generation of scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.

Industrial application includes the use of gelatin as a stabilizer, thickener, and texturizer in foods and in the manufacture of rubber substitutes, adhesives, cements, lithographic and printing inks, plastic compounds, artificial silk, photographic plates and films, matches, and light filters for mercury lamps.
