Method of manufacturing gel using polysaccharides as raw materials

摘要

A gel manufactured by irradiating ionizing radiation in the range of 5-1000 kGy to an obtained paste compound of a density of 10% by weight or more after adding water to carboxymethyl carrageenan and wherein each gram of dry gel obtained is capable of absorbing 20 grams or more of water. The ionizing radiation may be gamma rays, electron beams or X-rays.
