DescriptionPectin, also known as galacturonate or D-lyxose, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as glucuronic acid derivatives. Glucuronic acid derivatives are compounds containing a glucuronic acid moiety (or a derivative), which consists of a glucose moiety with the C6 carbon oxidized to a carboxylic acid. Pectin is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Pectin exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.
