Comparison of Analytical Methods for Determining Methylesterification and Acetylation of Pectin
The esterification of galacturonic acid with methanol and/or acetic acid is important for the structural analysis of pectin. Although several methods have been reported for determining the degree of methylesterification (DM) and acetylation (DAc), the present study compares and optimizes three metho...
