Optimization of sunflower head pectin extraction by ammonium oxalate and the effect of drying conditions on properties
Abstract Pectin is a kind of natural and complex carbohydrates which is extensively used in food, chemical, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. Fresh sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) heads were utilized as a novel source of pectin extracted by ammonium oxalate. The conditions of the extraction...
