Research Progress of Konjac Glucomannan and Its Derivatives
Konjac glucomannan(KGM)is a natural polymer polysaccharide rich in konjac,which has good application and development prospects in many fields such as food,medicine and biology.It has been shown that KGM has a variety of biological activities is also a good dietary fiber.In order to utilize KGM more fully,a variety of modified KGMs have been prepared to change its structure and function.In this paper,the current research status of KGM and its derivatives is reviewed in order to provide a reference for the related research and application of KGM.
