GENU PECTIN MA-50 is a low ester pectin extracted from citrus peel and standardized with sucrose. As a gelling agent, GENU PECTIN MA-50 provides soft, succulent and heat stable textures in food applications. It easily combines with other hydrocolloids to enhance juiciness and moisture retention in plant-based meat alternatives and other food products. GENU PECTIN MA-50 is typically used at levels between 0.5-2.0% to improve mouthfeel, texture and stability without altering flavor. Being a natural ingredient extracted from citrus peel, GENU PECTIN MA-50 helps formulate clean label and plant-based food products.
