Abstract Hsian-tsao is a special resource in China, both edible and medicinal. This plant is widely distributed in Guangdong, Fujian, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Yunnan, Taiwan and other provinces. Hsian-tsao polysaccharides are the most abundant and widely used active ingredients of hsian-tsao, with potent antioxidant and antibacterial activity and unique gelation characteristics. This article outlines recent progress in the separation, extraction of and application in meat products of hsian-tsao polysaccharides and the studies of their functional activity and gelation characteristics, and discusses their application trends.
