High Quality Purity Citrus Pectin Powder 99% Pure Powder Pectine Glaze

Pectin is a polysaccharide - based macromolecular compound widely found in the cell walls and intercellular layers of plants, with characteristics such as gelation, thickening, and stabilization, and is often used in the food, pharmaceutical, and other industries.

(1) In the food industry: As a gelling agent, it is used to make jams and jellies, endowing them with a good gelling texture and taste. As a thickening agent, it is added to yogurts, ice creams, etc., increasing the viscosity and stability of the products. As a stabilizer, it is used in fruit juices and beverages to prevent the pulp from settling and maintain the uniformity of the products.

(2) In the medical field: It can serve as a drug carrier to delay drug release, improve the stability and bioavailability of drugs. It can also be used to prepare medical dressings, which have good biocompatibility and moisturizing properties and are helpful for wound healing.

(3) In other industries: In cosmetics, it is used as a thickening agent and stabilizer to improve the texture and stability of products. In the paper-making industry, it can enhance the strength and glossiness of paper.

(1) Gelling function: Under certain conditions, pectin can form a gel. This property enables it to be used in food processing to make products such as jellies and jams, giving them specific textures and forms.

(2) Thickening function: It can increase the viscosity of liquids, giving foods or other products suitable rheological properties. It is used in products such as yogurts and sauces to improve taste and stability.

(3) Emulsifying and stabilizing function: Pectin helps stabilize emulsion systems and prevent the separation of the oil and water phases. It plays a role in maintaining the uniformity and stability of products in fields such as beverages and cosmetics.

(4) Dietary fiber function: Pectin is a soluble dietary fiber that can promote intestinal peristalsis, increase satiety, and help prevent constipation, which has a positive effect on maintaining normal intestinal function and human health.

(5) Antioxidant function: Pectin has certain antioxidant properties, which can scavenge free radicals in the body, reduce oxidative damage, and to a certain extent, play a role in delaying aging and preventing diseases.

(6) Metal ion - binding function: It can complex with some metal ions. In industry, it can be used for wastewater treatment to remove heavy metal ions. In food, it can also affect the absorption and utilization of minerals.
