What's pectin? Pectin is a kind of polysaccharide, and its composition has two types: homopolysaccharide and heteropolysaccharide. They are mostly found in plant cell walls and inner cell layers, and a large number of them are found in the peels of citrus, lemon and grapefruit. It is white to yellow powder, with a relative molecular mass of about 20,000 to 400,000, and is tasteless. It is more stable in acidic solution than in alkaline solution, and is usually divided into high-ester pectin and low-ester pectin according to its degree of esterification. High-ester pectin forms an irreversible gel in the range of soluble sugar content≥60% and pH=2.6~3.4. Part of the methyl ester of low-ester pectin is converted into primary amide, which is not affected by sugar or acid, but needs to be combined with divalent ions such as calcium and magnesium to form a gel. |
