Physicochemical properties of banana peel pectin / Nurul ‘Ain Mohd Kamil

The aim of this study is to determine the proximate analysis of banana peel and determine the physicochemical properties of pectin from two species of banana namely ‘Pisang Emas’ (Musa acumimata) and ‘Pisang Berangan’ (Musa acuminate Cola cv. Berangan). The moisture content of ‘Pisang Berangan’ and...
