Improving pectin technology.

Abstract
Summary: The effect of ultrasonic treatment on pectin stability in aqueous solution was studied to establish conditions which minimized degradation. Pectin was extracted under these conditions with an increased yield and without reducing the drainage properties of the extracted fruit mass. A pulsed ultrasonic method in aqueous acidic medium was developed, successfully tested with three different apple pomace samples, and its advantages demonstrated.
