Pectin
Product Description
Pectin is a natural heteropolysaccharide, mainly found in the cell walls of higher plants (such as citrus fruits,lemon, apples, etc.), composed of alpha-1, 4-glucoside linked galacturonic acid units, and may contain rhamnose-galactose and other neutral sugar side chains. Its unique gelling and stability make it widely used in food, medicine, cosmetics and scientific research fields. Pectin can be separated and purified from plant raw materials by acid extraction or enzymatic hydrolysis. It has the characteristics of high biocompatibility and good safety.
Product characteristics
1.Gelling and thickening: It is combined with sugar to form a gel under acidic conditions, which is suitable for food processing such as jam and jelly to improve texture and taste.
2.Stability and emulsification: high temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, can stabilize the emulsion system, extend the product shelf life.
3.Health function:
Intestinal regulation: By regulating the balance of intestinal flora, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, relieve diarrhea or constipation.
Metabolic improvement: Studies have shown that pectin inhibits obesity caused by environmental pollutants and improves lipid metabolity.
Detoxification: combined with intestinal mucosal toxins, relieve irritation, clinical use for detoxifying agents or lead poisoning adjuvant treatment .
Safety hyposensitivity: Used as an adhesive and stabilizer in cosmetics, with a safety risk rating of (very low irritation).
