Extraction and characterization of pectin from passion fruit peels

The influence of pH and extraction time on pectin yield and composition was studied in a citric acid extraction process. The pectin yield and degree of esterification (DE) of the extracted pectin ranged from 2.25 to 14.60% and 41.67 to 67.31% respectively. It was found that extraction pH was the mos...
