This study investigated the effect of citric, nitric and sulfuric acid on the yield and physicochemical properties of pectin extracted from jackfruit and chempedak fruit rinds. Yield and physicochemical properties such as uronic acid content, degree of esterification, degree of acetylation and colou...
