| Description: | Pectin Amid CS 025-B is an amidated, low methylester pectin which is standardised with diphosphate, polyphosphate, calcium lactate and sucrose to constant rheological properties. Pectins are produced from freshly harvested, juiced and gently dried apples or citrus fruits. Amidated pectin consists mainly of the partial methyl esters and amides of polygalacturonic acid and their sodium, potassium, calcium and ammonium salts |
