Hot acid extraction, characterisation and scavenging activity of pectin from hylocereus polyrhizus

Gelatin is extensively added to the food products for quality improvements of food entities. The role of gelatin as food thickener, texturizer, stabilizer, ingredient and as an animal based source has restricted its liberal use. However, the usage of this animal-based food quality improver has beco...
