By analyzing pectin extracts from various fruit and vegetable sourcesthe influence of botanical origin on pectin structure and functionality could be explored. In the later stages of this doctoral researchspecific structure modifying techniques (i.e. chemical modification and fractionation using ultracentrifugation) were applied to pectin samples with promising emulsion stabilizing potential. Dit doctoraatsonderzoek onderzocht het emulgerend en emulsie stabiliserend potentieel van specifieke geëxtraheerde pectinestructuren. Door pectinerijke extracten afkomstig van verschillende inheemse botanische bronnen te bestuderenkon de invloed van de botanische oorsprong op de pectinestructuur en functionaliteit onderzocht worden. In de latere fases van dit onderzoek werden specifieke technieken (chemische modificatie en ultrafiltratie) toegepast op pectinestalen met een veelbelovend emulsie stabiliserend potentieel.
