| Popis: |
Pectin is a polysaccharide that is known for its gelling properties and its applications in the pharmaceutical industry. This can be divided into two structural groups, high methoxyl pectins (HMP) and low methoxyl pectins (LMP). Currently, there is little information on the properties of the orange pectin in which LPM predominates. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate the mechanical properties of gels produced with pectin isolated from orange peels. The results showed similar values to those found in the literature, except for hardness. The gels produced from the pectin could be used in the industry, the formulation varying depending on the application. |
