Gum Arabic
We Kachabo Gums are involved in
offering utmost quality of Gum Arabic. Gum Arabic gummy exudate from the stems
or branches of Acacia Senegal or of related species process of Acacia. The trees
that produce commercial grade of gum Arabic grow primarily in the Sudan and
Senegal regions of Africa. The trees are about 4.5-6 meters high and live about
25-30 years. Gum Arabic results from an infection of the trees, which yields
the gum only when in an unhealthy condition. To accelerate exudation the bark
is cut and the exudate allowed to dry, forming "tears" which are collected.
Gum is collected by hand every 10 days during the dry season, which varies from
October to June. The gum is graded visually buy sorting the lumps or tears
basically into two grades: the clean amber sorts and hand picked selected gum.
Gum Arabic dissolves readily in hot or cold
water. A 40% solution produces an excellent mucilage for adhesiveness. Aqueous
solutions of over 50% concentrations may be prepared. Gum Arabic is insoluble
