The pectins isolated are characterized by a high degree of esterification of the carboxy groups, and their base consists of a fragment constructed from  -1 4-linkedD-galacturonic acid residues.Institute of the Chemistry of Plant Substances, Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, fax (3712) 40 64 75.
