Abstract:

Premna microphylla Turcz (PMT) has great exploitation and utilization potential due to its rich wild resources and high pectin content. In this experiment, ammonium oxalate ultrasonic-assisted method was used to extract PMT pectin, its product quality and rheological properties under different conditions were determined. Using jelly products as a carrier, the application characteristics of gel were investigated. The results showed that PMT pectin belonged to high methoxyl pectin were extracted, and its commercial indexes met the current national standards. The gel characteristic showed that as the temperature and pH increased, the viscosity decreased, and as the sucrose content increased, the viscosity increased slightly. In this experiment, it was found that when the ratio of PMT pectin to carrageenan was 1∶2, the addition of compound colloid was 1.6%, the overall performance of jelly was the best. It provided a certain reference for the application of PMT pectin in the field of gel food.

Key words: Premna microphylla Turcz, pectin, gel rheology, gel application
