The thermostability of two forms of purified pectinesterase from soursop fruit were studied. The heat stability data showed that PE I is more heat stable than PE II at pH 7.5. The D and Z values were evaluated in the range 45–75°C. The D values at 65°C were approximately 5.8 min and 3.3 min for PE I...
