Targeted pectin depletion enhances the potential of high-pressure homogenization to increase the network forming potential of tomato cell wall material KU Leuven
The current study addresses the influence of pectin depletion on the potential of high-pressure homogenization (HPH) to increase the network forming potential of the cell wall material (CWM) from tomato. Therefore, the microstructure, water binding capacity and viscoelastic properties of the alcohol-insoluble residue (AIR) and unextractable fractions (UFs) obtained after different levels and methods of pectin extraction were determined in ...
