Xanthan gum is an extracelullar polysaccharide produced by bacteria of the genus Xanthomonas. Its functionality is a direct consequence of its chemical structure. This structure has been widely studied because it is subject to changes, dependant on the producer microrganism and on the operational conditions applied during the fermentation. The purpose of this paper is to review the influence of the operational conditions of xanthan production in the physiochemical characteristics of the gum produced.
