Abstract: Disclosed is a cellulose composite which comprises cellulose and a hydrophilic gum, the cellulose composite giving a 1-mass % aqueous dispersion thereof which has a storage modulus (G?) of 0.06 Pa or more when the pH thereof is 4.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cellooligosaccharide composition comprising, as the main ingredient, at least one cellooligosaccharide selected from the group consisting of cellobiose, cellotriose, cellotetraose, cellopentaose and cellohexaose, which is in the powdery form having an average L/D value of 3.0 or lower, a bulk density of 0.80 g/mL or lower and an angle of repose of 60° or lower.

Abstract: A process of producing cellooligosaccharide, comprising enzymatically decomposing, in the presence of cellulase, a water-insoluble natural cellulosic material having an average degree of polymerization not greater than 700, an average particle size not greater than 100. A process of producing cellooligosaccharide, comprising enzymatically decomposing, in the presence of cellulase, a water-insoluble natural cellulosic material having an average degree of polymerization not greater than 700, containing 10% or more by mass of a colloidal cellulose component and a diethyl ether-soluble substance content less than 1% by mass.
