“Modified Citrus Pectins”

In phytochemistry, Modified Citrus Pectin, as a citrus pectin, is a complex water soluble indigestible polysaccharide obtained from the peel and pulp of citrus fruits rich in a galacturonic acid, altered by pH adjustment and thermal treatment.
In phytochemistry, the Modified Citrus Pectin, process while maintaining the linear chain of galacturonic acid, causes a de-esterification of the pectins, decreasing the molecular weight due to the removal of neutral sugars and reducing viscosity. **
