Handling of Modified Tamarind gum powder
Carboxy methyl tamarind kernel powder should be packed in moisture proof containers. And excessive heat and humidity should be provided; the gum powder may deteriorate through enzymic action during long storage. To avoid this, modified tamarind kernel powder should be mixed with 0.5% by weight of sodium bisulfite and fumigate with sulphur dioxide at frequent times.
