Characterisation of pectins extracted from different parts of Malaysian durian rinds [PDF]
Durian rinds are a potential source of pectin. The rinds consist of the outer layer of the fruit which is semiwoody and thorny and the inner layer, which is creamy white.

Isolation and characterization of acetylated LM-pectins extracted from okra pods [PDF]
Pectin was isolated by aqueous extraction at pH 6.0 or 2.0 from okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L.) pods. An isolation protocol was designed to extract pectin and to study the influence of the extraction pH on their composition and physicochemical ...

PECTOPLATE: the simultaneous phenotyping of pectin methylesterases, pectinases and oligogalacturonides in plants during biotic stresses [PDF]
Degradation of pectin, a major component of plant cell wall, is important for fungal necrotrophs to achieve a successful infection. The activities of pectin methylesterases (PMEs) from both plants and pathogens and the degree and pattern of pectin ...
