Research Summary
Hydrocolloid is a type of substance that forms a gel-like consistency when mixed with water. It is commonly used in various industries, including food and medical applications. In the food industry, hydrocolloids such as agar, carrageenan, and pectin are utilized as thickening agents, stabilizers, and gelling agents in a wide range of products, from sauces and dressings to desserts. In the medical field, hydrocolloid dressings are frequently employed for wound care due to their ability to create a moist environment that promotes healing while providing a protective barrier. The term ＂hydrocolloid＂ is derived from the fact that these substances are colloids, which are dispersed particles, that can absorb and retain water, resulting in the formation of a gel.
