| Application: | Pectin from citrus peel has been used: • in the comparative study of physicochemical, rheological and gelling properties of pectin among different extraction method • in starch suspension for measuring in vitro starch digestibility • to measure pectinase activity • in the production of pectinase on solid medium |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Pectin is essential for plant development including growth, morphological changes and immunity. It serves as a stabilizing polymer and is useful in food and speciality products. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Pectin, a heterosaccharide component of terrestrial plant cell walls, is used as a substrate to identify, differentiate and characterized pectinase(s). Pectin is used to study its degradation by pectinolytic bacteria. |
| General description: | Pectin is a polysaccharide is rich in galacturonic acid and possesses a complex structure and function. |
