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.
Â· Heat capacity is the amount of heat required to produce a temperature increase for a given amount of substance. Â· Heat energy balance in a resting person is a condition, where the heat production is equal to the heat loss. Thus the body temperature is constant and the heat storage is zero (thermal steady state). Usually, there is no internal heat energy flux between body core and shell.
