| Pectin (in English: pectin) is a type of natural polymer compound. It is mainly found in all higher plants and is an important component of the intercellular matrix of plants. Pectin is deposited in the primary cell wall and the intercellular layer. In the primary wall, it interconnects with various amounts of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin microfibrils, and certain extensin proteins, making various cell structures hard and maintaining their inherent shapes, serving as the supporting substance for internal cells. It was first isolated and described by Henry Brackenroy in 1825. | |||||||||
