Pectin Structure Functions Based on Ionic Interactions in Plant Based Food Systems KU Leuven
Foods are multicomponent systems in which interactions between components are very likely to occur. Amongst all food systems, given their interesting nutritional profile, their low carbon footprint, etc. , the consumption of plant-based food systems is increasingly advised. Pectin is an important component in such systems and interacts with other food components such as metal ions. These interactions do not only impact the rheological ...
