Konjac andκ-carrageenan were used to form a compound gel. The effects of konjac/κ-carrageenan ratio, compound gel concentration, pH Value, ionic strength, KCl and CaCl2 on textural properties of this compound gel were investigated. Results indicated that an excellent synergistic effect on hardness, elasticity and cohesiveness of compound gel was exhibited due to the molecular interaction betweenκ-carrageenan and konjac gum. An optimal gelation was achieved under the following conditions: compound gel concentration 2.0 g/100mL, pH 3.0-6.0, i...
