Using texture analyzer,the gels of carrageenan and agar were measured.Special attention was pain to the influence of concentration,pH value and Mg2 + ion intensity on the gel strength of the agar and carrageenan.The results showed that the gel strength of the agar have a small increasing trend with the increase of the concentration of Mg2 +,so Mg2 + can be added to the agar.But Mg2 + can not make carrageenan gel effectively,the concentration was the main factor in affecting the gel strength.This strength increased with increasing concentration,and f...
