Cassia Tora is a wild crop plant that belongs to the Caesalpinaceae plant family and genus Cassia. Cassia tora seeds are hard to beat in their quality and affordability. They are bold and small seeds. These seeds are also shiny and are duly machine cleaned. These cassia tora seeds are available into many ranges such as cassia tora seed and natural cassia tora seeds Cassia tora L., (=Cassia obtusifolia L.), Caesalpiniaceae, occurs throughout India as a . The leaves, flowers and young fruits are illustrated.

Cassia Tora Splits are obtained from the seeds of Cassia Obtusifolia, a plant of the Leguminosae family. The name is derived from Latin words obtus meaning blunt and folium meaning leaf. This is annual plant that mainly grows after the Indian monsoon season. This plant bears pods of nearly 20cm which contain many cylindrical seeds. These are the cassia tora seeds that are usually broken into two halves and referred to as cassia splits. These splits are usually called by different names like cassia torea splits, senna splits, cassia senna splits etc. Before splitting the seeds are passed through grading machines to differentiate them on the basis of their size. During this procedure, the underdeveloped seeds are removed and C.occidentalis seeds are reduced to no more than 0.05%. The seeds are dehusked and de-germed by thermal mechanical treatment followed by milling and screening of the endosperm.The endosperm is usually separated from the germ. The dehusking of the splits is usually achieved through heating, grinding, polishing and sieving.

Guar Meal A cattle feed. Guar gum is applied for various food and other industrial uses as a viscosifier, thickener, binder, gelling agent, stabilizer, emulsifier, flocculant, water holding agent. Guar meal is a highest protein containing animal feed in its group; it is having up to 55 percent of protein [O+A] with a digesting content. During the guar split manufacturing process, husk and germ are obtained. These are used as a valuable cattle feed as they are rich in protein.

Guar Gum Refined Split is refined endosperm derived from guar seed or cluster bean (cyamoperm tetragonoloba). It is a non-ionic polysaccharide galacomannan. Guar Gum Refined Split (Endosperm) is mechanically separated from guar seed which yields 28-30% of Refined Split. Guar beans are harvested and dried following the growing season. The beans are shelled from the pods, the germ and hull removed. The resulting splits are wet-milled into powder; the powder is graded by granulation and quality

Cyamopsis tetragonolobus and psoralioides are the botanical forms of Guar plant whose seeds are processed to separate the endosperm from which Guar gum is obtained. These are leguminous plants and suitable for growing in all seasons including rainy season or in hot summer so, it is called annual plant. It is extracted from the endosperm of these seeds contains carbohydrate with high molecular weight. And this type of crop can be cultivated with good productivity in sandy soils. It is applied for its thickening property and this remains the main application of this product. The presence of edible carbohydrate polymer makes it suitable for adding as a reagent in hydrogen and mineral bonding and even in cellulosic surfaces. Guar gum powder is fine in texture and it stays white in color. Apart from that it is also coarse, ironic and free flowing in nature. This powder contains excellent thickening capacity and can show thickening property eight times higher than that of the thickening capacity of corn starch. For the same reason, it is extensively used in food processing applications. In addition, it is also used as an effective ingredient in milk products, baking mixes, dressings. Commercial and industrial usage includes applications in textile, paper manufacturing, cosmetic, pharmaceutical and printing.

Cassia splits mainly consists of mannose and galactose units. These are pale yellow splits that are normally soluble in hot water. They act as thickening agents and form gels with carageenan and xanthan. These Cassia Torea splits are often used as food additives. They are used in cattle feed products like dog foods, cat foods, cow foods.

The cassia tora split powder obtained from these cassia tora splits are some ancient natural ingredients known for their natural gelling properties. It is used as used as a gelling agent in pet food. It is approved for use in Europe by the Commission Directive (EEC No. E 499) and is listed in the Annex of the Council Directive (70/524/EEC) as a stabilizer, thickening and gelling agent in the manufacture of canned pet foods for cats and dogs. The splits are often used in conjunction with carrageenan and replace the use of Locust Bean Gum or Carob Gum or Guar Gum Splits. They are mostly used in preparing air fresheners in the form of gels.

The cassia gum or cassia splits are used as thickeners, emulsifiers, foam stabilizers, moisture retention agents and texturizing agents in cheese, frozen dairy desserts, mixes and poultry products. They are used in all meat containing dishes including salads, appetizers, frozen multi course meat meals and sandwich ingredients prepared by commercial processing or using commercially processed meats with home preparation.

Acting as a surfactant, a water soluble agent and an active ingredient the cassia tora is often used in personal care products. The cationic cassia derivatives are suitable for preparation of personal care like cosmetics, toiletries and cosmeceuticals. These are often used in preparation of health care products such as topical and non-topical pharmaceuticals, creams, pomades, gels, pastes, ointments, tablets, gel capsules, suppositories, anti-fungal foams, eye products without limitation.
