Effect of Process Parameters on Pectin Extraction from Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) Peels via Chemical and Physical Treatment

Dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) peel was found to be one of the potential sources of pectin. The combination of physical and chemical treatments namely mild ultrasound, stirring and citric acid has been applied with the aim to get the high yield of pectin during extraction. The influence of sev...
