Pectate structural properties

Pectin belongs to a family of plant polysaccharides in which the polymer backbone consists of (1— 4)-linked a-D-galacturonic acid repeating-units. Often, (1— 2)-linked a-L-rhamnose residues interrupt the regular polygalacturonate sequence. The high viscosity and gelling properties of pectins are exploited by the food and pharmaceutical industries. X-Ray studies on sodium pectate, calcium pectate, pectic acid, and pectinic acid (methyl ester of pectic acid) have disclosed their structural details. [Pg.348]
