According to
the study “Asia Cosmetic Grade Pullulan Industry Situation and
Prospects Research report”, cosmetic grade pullulan is used in the manufacture of cosmetics due to
its tightening effect is almost instant but it will wash away. In a long run,
pullulan will enhance the immune response and make the skin more resistant to
infections. Pullulan is used as coatings, in dressings and sauces, innovative
soft candy, edible chewing gum, and as egg and fruit preservatives. Pullulan
is edible, and is easy to be washed away in water and therefore, it is used
extensively in food industry. It is commercially used in the
manufacture of edible films that are used in various breath freshener or oral
hygiene products. Pullulan is also used in scientific research as a carrier for
drug delivery.
Pullulan is a natural water-soluble
polysaccharide, produced by fermentation from starch or auveobasidium
pullulans. It is a biopolymer with unique and
interesting properties. It consists of maltotriose units linked through
α-1, 6 - glucosidic bonds. It has a typical chemical
linkage pattern that possesses distinctive physical traits such as high
adhesion properties, which tend to form strong film with oxygen impermeable
ability. Pullulan is a white to off white
powder and is edible, flavourless, odourless, tasteless and extremely stable
biopolymer. It is non-toxic and non-immunogenic in nature and readily dissolves
in water. Its viscosity is comparatively lower than many polysaccharides and
does not form a gel. Being a versatile polysaccharide it decomposes at 250°C or
280°C. Pullulan is majorly used as a technology platform for innovation in
cosmetic or pharmaceutical industry. It can form excellent film that is
heat sealable as a good oxygen barrier and printable film. Pullulan is widely
used in the development of various pharmaceutical, cosmetics, industrial
applications and food industries as encapsulating agents, adhesives,
thickening, and extending agents.
