Chemical Modification of Pectin and Polygalacturonic Acid: A Critical Review

Chemical Modification of Pectin and Polygalacturonic Acid: A Critical Review

Pectin, as a sustainable biopolymer with its two complementary functionalities (carboxyl and hydroxyl moieties) imparted in the α-1,4-galacturonic acid repeating unit, has gained increasing attention in the last few years. The interest in this ubiquitously occurring plant originating polysaccharide...
