A narrative review on Xanthan Gum characteristics: A Thickening Agent Used for Dysphagia [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation Sciences and Research, 2021
Dysphagia is a difficulty transferring liquid/food from the mouth to the stomach. It has life-threatening complications which can be reduced by thickening agents. There are various thickeners such as gelatin and xanthan.

Effects of nano thickener deposited film on the behaviour of starvation and replenishment of lubricating greases

Friction, 2016
The mechanism of grease replenishment in and around a starved point contact was studied in this work. Greases made of different thickeners and same base oil were tested and compared.
