Refined carrageenan has a 2% maximum for acid-insoluble material and is produced by alcohol precipitation or potassium chloride gel press process. [19] Semi-refined carrageenan has a much higher cellulose content [21] and is produced in a less complex process. Indonesia, the Philippines, and Chile are three main sources of raw material and ...
Potato starch slurry Roux. A thickening agent or thickener is a substance which can increase the viscosity of a liquid without substantially changing its other properties. Edible thickeners are commonly used to thicken sauces, soups, and puddings without altering their taste; thickeners are also used in paints, inks, explosives, and cosmetics.
Carrageenan may prevent HPV and HSV transmission, but not HIV. See Carrageenan#Medical Uses. The phase III clinical trial for carrageenan-based Carraguard showed that it had no statistical effect on HIV infection, according to results released in 2008. The study showed that the gel was safe, with no side effects or increased risks.
Carrageenan – Natural linear sulfated polysaccharide; Gellan gum – Gelling and thickening agent; Immunodiffusion – immunological method, involving the diffusion of antigen or antibody through a semisolid medium, usually agar or agarose gel, with the result being a precipitin reaction

Carrageenan is a vegetarian and vegan alternative to gelatin in some applications, and is used to replace gelatin in confectionery and other food. The first industrial commercial cultivation of Eucheuma and Kappaphycus spp. for carrageenan was developed in the Philippines. The global top producers of carrageenan are the Philippines and Indonesia.

Eucheuma and K. alvarezii are attractive for carrageenan (a gelling agent); Gracilaria is farmed for agar; the rest are eaten after limited processing. [106] Seaweeds are different from mangroves and seagrasses, as they are photosynthetic algal organisms [107] and are non-flowering. [106]
