ABSTRACT:
In the production of xanthan gum by action of the Xanthomonas bacteria on a nutrient medium, a low viscosity xanthan gum is produced by adding sulfate anions in a concentration ranging from about 0.2 to about 0.5 wt % of the nutrient medium during the culture of the Xanthomonas bacteria in the nutrient medium. A reduced viscosity xanthan gum is produced which can be converted to the normal viscosity xanthan gum.
