What is Gellan Gum? Gellan gum is a water soluble, high molecular weight polysaccharide gum that is produced through the fermentation of carbohydrates in algae by the bacterium Pseudomonas elodea. This fermented carbohydrate is purified with isopropyl alcohol, then dried and milled producing a powder.
Specific heat capacity. When objects of different temperature are brought together, and heat is transferred from the higher-temperature objects to the lower-temperature objects, the total internal energy is conserved.
Thermal Energy. Thermal energy, which is more commonly known as heat, is a form of energy. It is measured in joules. Thermal energy is an internal energy for a given system. Thermal energy is the cause for the temperature of a system. Every system having a temperature above absolute zero has a positive thermal energy.
