Using AFM and force spectroscopy to determine pectin structure and (bio) functionality
2011-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Pectin is an integral component of non-graminaceous plant cell walls. It is believed to form an interconnected network structure independent of the cellulose-xyloglucan network structure. Pectin gels are often used as a model for the pectin network structure within the plant cell wall. Atomic force microscopy studies of calcium-induced gel precursors, and fragments released from gels, suggest that association lead...
