Pectin is a structural polysaccharide of the cell wall of plants, Commercial pectin is commonly extracted from apples and citrus fruits. Pectin is an important polysaccharide with applications in foods, Pharmaceuticals, and a number of other industries. Pectin can be used for numerous applications, mainly because it is a safe, non-toxic product with low production cost and high availability. Widely using in jams, fruit juices, desserts, dairy products, jellies, and more recently in low‐calorie foods as a fat and/or sugar replacer. Its importance in the food sector lies in its ability to form gel in the presence of calcium ions or a solute at low pH. pH, presence of other solutes, molecular size, degree of methoxylation, number and arrangement of side chains, and charge density on the molecule can influence the gelation of pectin. Meron offers two types of pectin – HM Pectin & LM pectin
