Extraction and characterization of pectin from dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) using various extraction conditions. (Pengekstrakan dan pencirian pektin daripada buah naga (hylocereus polyrhizus)menggunakan pelbagai keadaan pengekstrakan)

The extraction of pectin from dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) peels under three different extraction conditions was identified as an alternative source of commercial pectin. In this work, dried alcohol-insoluble residues (AIR) of dragon fruit peels were treated separately with 0.25% ammonium ox...
