Abstract: Xanthan gum and konjac gum were not gelation polysaccharides.They could get geled when mixed.There was a jelly-glue strength maximum when the mixed ratio of xanthan gum and konjac gum was in the ratio 0.7/0.3,When the total polysaccharide concentration was 1%.Studies have been made on the gelation effect at the preparation temperature and bulk salt ionic concentration.It has been observed that,there was a jelly-glue strength maximum when the preparation temperature was 80℃ and salt ionic concentration was 0.2mol/L.

Key words: Xanthan gum Konjac gum Gelation
