Apple pectin is a compound found in apples. Many other fruits also contain pectin, although apples contain very high concentrations of this compound. Cooks may be familiar with pectin because it is used in jams and jellies to help them set, but it also has a number of health benefits. People can consume apples for their pectin or take apple pectin supplements, available through health food stores and in the vitamin and supplement aisle at some grocery stores.

Apple 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.

Pectin is widely used in processing of food and beverages, such as jam, jelly, fruit yogurt, soft sweets, ice cream, sour milk or fruit yogurt, soymilk. It is functions as gelantinizer, suspending agent, stabilizer, and thickening agent.

A small amount of pectin can improve greatly the quality and appearing of the food. It helps giving food a natural, moderate, tart and sweet fruit taste, and charming delicate fragrance flavor.

Pectin is also used extensively in industry. The pectin has definite curative effects on some chronic such as hypertension and constipation.
