| Description: | Pectin Classic CJ 208 is a high methylester pectin (degree of esterification 68-76 %) which is standardised with sucrose to constant rheological properties. Pectins are produced from harvested, juiced and gently dried apples or citrus fruits. Pectins consists mainly of the partial methyl esters of polygalacturonic acid and their sodium, potassium, calcium and ammonium salts |
