Resumen
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) In this work, the effect of the process conditions used for the separately drying of milled albedo and flavedo on the chemical characteristics of the pectins extracted in a second step from 'Pera' sweet orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) by using citric acid were studied. The highest yield value obtained was 38.21% w/w for dried albedo (Pectin-A) at 70 degrees C and 0.1 m s(-1) of air velocity. The analyses of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) shows that both Pectin-A and Pectin-F (Flavedo) are characterized as high methoxyl pectin (HM) (DE > 50%). The pectin was assessed for its molecular weight (MW) by the technique of gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and the results of MW varied between 337.41-606.85 kDa for Pectin-A and 487.92-1702.00 kDa for Pectin-F. The quality of pectin, determined by the galacturonic acid (AGA), has the highest value of 93.64% for Pectin-A. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. 166
